Classes and skills
6War Mercenary starts in the Apprentice Doppelsoldner class and promotes through 2 more tiers. Each promotion keeps the skills already learned and adds the new class's.
First tier
Apprentice Doppelsoldner
Attack
The battlefield in the southern Empire is quite different from that of the north. Unlike the central Empire, where cavalry and diverse units can be relied upon, the southern Empire, with its semi-independent city-states, prefers densely packed pikemen skilled in both offense and defense. Thus, the primary strategy has become breaking the morale of these pikemen and destroying their formations. Translated into Earth's language as "Doppelsoldner," these individuals are, in fact, the second sons and daughters of nobles or those of lesser status, enjoying more privilege than the term suggests. They stand at the frontlines of battle to earn the trust of soldiers they will eventually lead.
