Tactics[] Like any other ranged troops, they work well in firing lines - if commanded to "fire at will", a formation of 50 or more Musketeers will provide constant musket fire, preventing enemy troops from getting close. Musketeers can also soften up enemy cavalry right after a battle starts by quickly arranging them in rows, deploying them on a good position on the map, waiting for the enemy to get close and then commanding them to open fire, and finally deploying allied cavalry arranged in attack formation so as to relieve Musketeers when they get overrun by enemy troops. Musketeers will excel in shooting down defenders during sieges but shouldn't be used to storm fortifications since they lack heavy armor and weaponry suitable for prolonged melee combat. When the siege starts and before deploying other troops to attack, commanding them to hold position and Musketeers to open fire in rows from a safe distance will allow them to spend all their musket bullets softening up the enemy force, increasing the player's chances of victory.
