In the game's words

How to use it

The Issa Warrior is a powerful Somali heavy infantry unit who wields a javelin. Issa Warriors attack closer targets faster but can also counter cavalry at range.

History

The Issa were a subgroup of the Dir, a large people-group in modern-day Djibouti, who often competed with their rivals the Afar. The Issa comprised a key part of the Adal Sultanate (15th-16th centuries), which controlled much of East Africa and the trade therein.
