Ibirapema Warrior: Ibirapema Warriors can damage multiple units in front of them with a sweeping attack, making a dense melee formation a favorable target. Their durability helps them hold the frontline while the area attack works Use the Warriors to meet a packed melee army or defend a narrow approach where several enemies must face them. Keep the formation together, then let ranged support punish the opponent as it tries to disengage or spread out The sweeping attack requires close contact and does not solve ranged pressure. Avoid chasing archers or spreading the Warriors so thin that the area attack cannot catch several targets
