Less Projectiles For Certain Faction Infantry

[IP Man]

As stated, I believe we need less throwing projectiles for infantry like sergeants and other heavily armored infantry. This can bring a bigger use for skirmishers on the battlefield. From a realistic standpoint, I believe having a huge bundle of weapons on your back while you fight could be difficult. But of course it would be fine if they have a few throwing axes here or there on their waistline. I'm not saying to completely remove it i'm just saying we could limit them to an extent.

Good one to be true.

I thought that a bundle of javelins had just three javelins in it. While I have not participated in the beta, I have watched quite a few Captains mode matches. Are you saying that there is heavy infantry with more that three javelins? (skirmishers get two bundles of three)

Yes, I see some units pelt the enemy with a volley of javelins with more to spare afterwards. I would think infantry would be more focused on the melee aspect and leave the throwing weapons to the skirmishers.

Ah I see. I did not realize that large bundles of throwing weapons were so common among heavy infantry. It does seem a bit off then.
