Gbeto
The Malian unique unit. A fast female infantry that throws javelins at range. Combines infantry mobility with ranged attack.
Tactical Briefing
You're ranged infantry - you attack from 5 range but deal melee damage (ignores pierce armor). With 40 HP, 10 attack, and 1.25 speed, you're fast and hit hard. Your 0/0 armor means you're fragile to everything. At only 50F/40G, you're very affordable. Mass them and focus fire high-value targets before they can close the distance.
