The 3-Star Unit Doppelsoldner storms the Battlefield

The arrival of the Doppelsoldner introduces a new era of military might in the game. Known as an elite infantry unit, these warriors stand out for their imposing presence and devastating combat style, where the two-handed greatsword becomes a whirlwind of steel and destruction.

Hailing from the Holy Roman Empire during the 15th and 16th centuries, the Doppelsoldner earned their name from the double wages they received for fighting on the front lines. Founded by Emperor Maximilian I to counter the feared Swiss mercenaries, the unit was composed of hardened veterans with unmatched battlefield experience.

Their signature weapon, the flamberge two-handed greatsword, stretched up to 180 centimeters in length and weighed over 3.5 kilograms. Carried in leather for protection, it was designed to shatter pike formations, breaking spearheads and sweeping enemies aside to carve through enemy lines with deadly precision.

The Doppelsoldner embody both raw strength and the fearless spirit of mercenaries who fought for glory and reward in Europe’s most dangerous conflicts. Are you ready to command this legendary unit and unleash their unstoppable might on the battlefield? More information here.
