Conspiracy Guardsman

Unlock the secrets of the Aserai Conspiracy Guardsman in Mount & Blade II: Bannerlord. Explore their skill values and how they fit into your army composition.

Alright, let's talk about the Conspiracy Guardsman from the Aserai. These guys are pretty interesting, especially if you're looking to round out your army with some solid infantry. They're not your frontline shock troops, but they bring a different kind of utility to the table.

Here's a breakdown of their key skill values:

As you can see, they really shine with their One Handed (70) and Polearm (80) skills. This tells you they're going to be decent with swords and axes, but their real strength lies in keeping enemies at bay with polearms. That Athletics skill at 60 is also pretty good, meaning they'll move around the battlefield reasonably well and won't get tired out too quickly.

Where they fall off is in ranged combat – their Bow (10) and Crossbow (30) skills are pretty low, and Throwing (30) isn't much better. Their Riding (40) is also just okay, so don't expect them to be effective cavalry support. And Two Handed (40) is definitely not their strong suit.

So, what does this mean for you? Think of the Conspiracy Guardsman as a solid defensive infantry unit. They're great for holding a line, especially when equipped with polearms, to prevent enemy cavalry charges or to create a buffer zone for your archers. They're not going to be racking up kills with bows, but they'll be instrumental in keeping your formation intact and controlling the flow of battle. Definitely worth considering if you need reliable infantry that can control space.
