Throwing Axeman (Age of Mythology)

The Throwing Axeman is the Norse Civilization's basic ranged unit in Age of Mythology. They are the strongest counter-infantry unit available and possess the only ranged hack damage in the game. This allows them to attack flying units with ease. They also deal more damage to buildings and are able to easily destroy siege weapons. However, Throwing Axemen are weak against archers and most counter-Archers have an attack bonus against them as well. Cavalry are also effective against them to an extent.
