Description[]

The Flintlock Infantry is a Chinese rifled infantry in Empires: Dawn of the Modern World, first acquired in the Gunpowder Age.

The Chinese Flintlock Infantry were small infantry groups which had guns or pistols with a Flintlock. Flintlocks were a lock for a pistol that had a flint in the hammer for striking a spark to ignite the charge. A flint was massive hard quartz, which produced a spark when struck by steel. This fired the gun.[1]
