Thalers Days Needed: 4 (Copper) Locations: Kezlev Fortress Azaq-kale Tactics[] Azaps are armed with fast blades and shields. Their light armour lets them run faster than most other infantry and their Yataghan is one of the fastest in the game, as well as dealing decent damage. However, it is very short, thus allowing an Azap to take out melee infantry easily but suffer against cavalry. They are good for sieges and especially good against pikemen/spearmen. As melee troops, it is critical to get them into contact with enemies quickly. Once in contact, you have to trust their shields to protect them when their fast strikes don't interrupt their targets' own strikes. Stats and equipment[] Note: Troops have a set of default stats; at the beginning of a new game, these stats are randomly adjusted for each type of troop. The following is the default set for this troop as seen within the game code and may not reflect the specific stats you will see during actual gameplay. For more information, see troop stats.
