In the game's words

How to use it

The Saxon Trabant is a heavy infantry unit. It is available in the Commerce Age at the Trading Post to anyone who has allied with the House of Wettin by building a Trading Post on one of their palaces. Like the Italian Papal Guard, Saxon Trabants are stout units that can deflect a portion of damage from attacks targeting adjacent allied units, and can also use a powerful charged pistol attack against enemy units.

History

The House of Wettin ruled German Saxony (among other territories) from the medieval period up through the 20th century. Trabants, deriving from German traben, ‘to walk’, were elite guards who fought on foot instead of from horseback and became mainstays in prestigious European households, where they literally shielded their rulers from attacks. Trabants saw notable action in Saxon armies from the 17th century on through the Napoleonic Wars, where, serving the French, they were wiped out during the Grande Armee’s invasion of Russia in 1812.
