For an infantry, it has high attack, armor, and hit points, as well as a high movement speed. As heroes, Sunda Royal Fighters cannot be converted and can regenerate health.
Campaign appearances[]
They appear in the Gajah Mada, Le Loi and Bayinnaung campaigns. In Bayinnaung, they are renamed to Toungoo Warriors and can be converted.
Gajah Mada[]
They notably appear in The Pasunda Bubat Tragedy, and belong to the Sunda princes, whom Gajah Mada wants to exterminate to cover the plot to subjugate the Sundanese from his king. They are (as their name suggests), the royal bodyguards of these princes, in Trowulan.
Bayinnaung[]
They are found scattered around the map in The Burmese Tigers, and can be converted to the player's side. They can also be found in The Mandalay Cobra, along with Canoes, Dragon Ships, and powered-up Monks. Later they appeared in The White Elephant. Since Dynasties of India, there's also a couple of them in The Royal Peacock inside Pegu.
Le Loi[]
They can be found on the Malay Pirates' island in The Dai Viet Uprising. They are removed in the Definitive Edition.
Pachacuti[]
It also appears in the Pachacuti campaign, renamed Apo Mayta, who is the narrator and one of the generals serving Pachacuti. Apo Mayta is playable in The Field of Blood, Brother against Brother and The Falcon's Tent.
Trivia[]
- It may seem strange that the bare-chested Sunda Royal Fighter has some armor. However, according to the historical record Kidung Sunda, the Sunda elite troops under Patih (minister) Anepaken wore golden scale armor (asisimping emas) and breech/trouser (lancingan).[1]
