Maiden Axes are an infantry axe unit for Scythia, recruitable from a 3rd tier barrack and up. They not only carry the armour-piercing axes of their horsebourne sisters, they also throw them before engaging in melee.
The Maiden Axes give Scythia a strong infantry unit in the mid-to-later game, ideal shock troops for taking walls, storming gates, and street-fighting.
Version 1.1 includes new sprites, to correct a problem where the Maidens may appear to sink into the ground at certain distances.
