Special Ability: Jousting Immunity
Although not mentioned in the game or manual, both Pikemen and Halberdiers are immune to Cavaliers' and Champions' jousting ability. This means they suffer damage from Cavaliers or Champions normally, but do not receive the additional damage from jousting bonus (thus, the distance of Cavaliers and Champions attack doesn't matter).
In Horn of the Abyss, the ability is present in the unit's description.
User Commentary
The halberdier is considered to be the 2nd best level 1 creature in raw stats, surpassed only by the Centaur Captain.
