Musketeer

What it looks like

The Musketeer is a Rare card that is unlocked in the Training Camp. It spawns one single-target, air-targeting, long-ranged, and ground troop with moderate hitpoints and moderate damage. The Musketeer takes the appearance of a woman who has blue eyes and purple coiffed curly hair and eyebrows, and wears a steel blue tunic with a team-colored cloth on it, a team-colored cape, a metal helmet with a team-colored feather and a tiny crater on it, a belt, a metal shoulder pad, and brown boots, while carrying a blunderbuss-styled musket as her weapon with dark gray spheres as her ammunition. A Musketeer card costs 4 Elixir to deploy.

Trivia

• The musket is a muzzle-loaded long gun that appeared as a smoothbore weapon in the early 16th century, at first as a heavier variant of the arquebus, capable of penetrating plate armour. By the mid-16th century, this type of musket gradually disappeared as the use of heavy armour declined, but muskets continued as the generic term for smoothbore long guns until the mid-19th century. In turn, this style of musket was retired in the 19th century when rifles became common.
