In the game's words
How to use it
The Totenkopf Hussar is a heavy hand cavalry unit. It is available in the Commerce Age at the Trading Post to anyone who has allied with the House of Hanover by building a Trading Post on one of their palaces. Totenkopf Hussars are similar to Hussars, but have a special attribute, the Death Strike, which is a powerful attack that charges up while a Totenkopf Hussar is fighting. Totenkopf Hussars can also ascend up to three levels of promotions by killing enemy units, each level raising their hit points and attack speed.
History
The House of Hanover ruled much of northwestern Germany from the 17th century up through the 20th century. During the early modern period, northern German states such as Hanover and Prussia recruited elite heavy cavalry forces. The Hanoverians, who often fought in the service of the Prussians, led, among other troops, Brunswicker cavalry dubbed Totenkopf Hussars for the insignia of the skull and crossbones that they wore on their hats. These troops were of such repute in their heyday that they spawned several imitations in the armies of their contemporaries, such as France, Sweden, and even Chile.
