In the current version, several unit types, including sword & shield units, archer units, crossbowmen units, firearm units, and melee cavalry units, are not performing as well as we'd like them to. This is mainly because they have remained unchanged for a long time and their basic attributes on the battlefield are not up to par. Additionally, their roles and counter relationships are not as distinct as we would like them to be. While we have attempted to address these issues through unit mastery, it has inadvertently made the weaker units even weaker. We intend to make a series of adjustments, along with future unit mastery updates, to ensure that each unit finds its unique role and enriches battlefield strategies.

• Sword & Shield Units: These units should excel in both offense and defense, especially in dealing with ranged attacks.
  
• Lancer Cavalry Unit: Special rushing abilities should complement, not replace, the traditional long-distance charge.
  
• Archer Unit: Units with extremely long-range attacks should have an advantage against long-range and unshielded units.
  
• Crossbowmen Unit: Units with piercing multiple-target attacks should be effective against offensive units but struggle against shielded units.
  
• Firearm Unit: These units should deal high single-target damage with lower accuracy and fire rate. Increasing soldier count is necessary to ensure attack efficiency.
  
• Melee Cavalry Unit: While a small soldier count is a contributing factor to their underperformance, it's not the main issue. The unit's mechanics will be continuously improved in the future.
  
• Leadership: To introduce more diverse strategies, leadership for lower-star units will be adjusted.
  

These are all the changes:

• Improved block ability against ranged attacks, with the ability to block arrows while moving and fighting
  

• The Unit Traits of Long-distance will be Changed: After Charge Start stage, every 1.5 seconds of charging will increases charge damage by 20% and charge speed by 20%, up to 3 times.
  
• Follow charge will be the same. However, it won’t be active when Dagger-Axe Lancers counterattack.
