Slinger (Age of Empires: Mythologies)

Combat
The slinger is a very effective archer unit of the Egyptian army. Slingers unlike other early archers can be used effectively in any age in numbers thanks to their cheapness compared to chariot archers. Slingers high attack for a archer in general allows them to easily dispatch light infantry and in groups heavy infantry and cavalry. They are one of the best human archers along with the long ranged gastrephetes and the long distance traveling chariot archer. However closing in myth units, heavy infantry and cavalry will destroy them with one attack so keeping distance and being protected by other units is key to the slinger's full usefulness

Weapons
The slinger uses a sling and pelts enemies with black stones. They are dressed similar to the spear man and the khepesh. Many major and minor gods help slingers which include Hathor, Sobek, and Set who's god power temporarily increases archer range along with relics
