In the game's words
How to use it
The Oyo Legionary is a powerful Yoruba heavy infantry unit who wields a javelin. Oyo Legionaries attack closer targets faster, carry shields for protection against ranged attacks, and are effective against cavalry units.
History
Oyo infantry were among the most organized and formidable fighting forces on the African continent during the early modern period. Reminiscent to their counterparts in Imperial Rome over a millennium prior, they were issued standardized equipment: a shield, an ida sword, and javelins. Oyo infantry sometimes poisoned their blades, lending themselves an extra dimension of power and danger on the battlefield.
