Iron Lance
| ||||
|
TheIron Lance (Japanese:鉄の槍Iron Lance) is one of the most basiclances in theFire Emblem series, first appearing inMystery of the Emblem and appearing in every game since. Commonly used bysoldiers,cavaliers andknights, it can be a mild threat at the beginning of most games, as almost all main characters wield swords. This weapon has a higher might and weight but less accuracy than the commonIron Sword, and the opposite when compared to itsaxe counterpart.
