Lance Armor
| ||||||
|
TheLance Armor orArmored Lance (Japanese:ランスアーマーLance Armor) is abasic armoredclass debuting inFire Emblem: Thracia 776. It is one of four weapon-specific variations of theKnight, specializing in the use oflances, and appears only inThracia 776,Radiant Dawn, andEngage; inGenealogy of the Holy War, the Knight class itself filled its role as the basic lance-wielding armored class. It is statistically near-identical to its counterparts, theAxe Armor,Sword Armor andBow Armor.
It is not playable in either of its earlier appearances, and as such is not tied to aclass change line; inRadiant Dawn, the lance-specificLance General would be its hypothetical class-changed form and does have two playable members:Tauroneo andGatrie. InEngage, the class debuts as playable and can promote into a lance-wieldingGeneral andGreat Knight.
