The maceman is a powerful infantry unit that can be unlocked with gems. Although the maceman is not particularly durable, it has a very high attack, and is able to destroy many units in one hit. The maceman is most effective against buildings and other structures, although it can pose a serious threat to enemy infantry as well. However, because a fully upgraded man-at-arms is roughly as powerful as a maceman, the latter becomes largely obsolete should the player acquire men-at-arms. It is only affected by the "Infantry Armor (1 and 2)" techs at a blacksmith.
