Description[]
The Javelin is a moderate-powered short-ranged infantry unit of the Western faction in Empire Earth III. A single Javelin appears at the start of the game for scouting in both Skirmish and World Domination game modes. A light and cheap javelin thrower with a short-ranged attack, it can gain the use of a spear thong to increase range and damage.
Strengths[]
Strong against Anti-Cavalry. Through research it can be upgraded to have the abilities:
- Better Fire Rate – Reduces delay between attacks. Requires 200 Wealth.
- Spear Thong – Spears go farther and strike harder with this enhancement device. A looped leather strap tied to import more force and spin to the projectile, increasing range and damage.
Weaknesses[]
Shock Cavalry and Field Weapon.
