Posad Marksmen are the militia marksmen of the Muscovite Tsardom. As they are militia grade, and armed with matchlock muskets, they should only be relied as fire support for better Marksmen or New Order Marksmen, as well as infantry and cavalry. In the event that they must engage in melee combat, they will wither away with their hatchets and simple sabers, and only their clothing as protection. Distinct from other Militia Musketeers, some Posad Marksmen are armed with two-handed Lumber Axes, giving them stronger punch in melee.
