Sharpshooters are level 4 neutral creatures recruited from the Treetop Tower.
"Specially trained by the guerrilla warrior Gelu, Sharpshooters are a select troop. Recruited from the ranks of Archers, Marksmen, Wood Elves, and Grand Elves, Sharpshooters use a huge recursive, compound longbow. More than five feet in length, three bowstrings running through the pulleys on both ends, aid in the power and precision of their attacks. With their training, distance and siege walls are not a hindrance." AB manual
General Tactics and Info
Like most ranged units, they are very vulnerable in melee. This applies especially to Sharpshooters, whose health is only 15, the lowest for a level 4 creature. However, they are neutral creatures and deal great amounts of damage, even in relatively low numbers.
Appearance
Sharpshooters were added in Armageddon's Blade so there are no Sharpshooters or Treetop Towers in Restoration of Erathia.
Heroes with a specialty
- Gelu the Ranger can upgrade Human archers and Elven bowmen to Sharpshooters.
