I think at legionary should have 5 pierce armour like shielder has because legionarys has big shield.

Wont that make the legionary too strong? If it will have 5 pierce armor the cost will have to increase.

I think 4 pierce armor is good, because dont forget the two blacksmith upgrades for +2 (so +6 if already at base +4).
Personally I think the Shielder is too expensive for how slow he is and how little hp he has. But 3 pierce armor is too low for the legionaire. If you increase the cost of the legion, then you simply have to increase the cost for the Templars because: 1) Templars have already been reduced in cost by one for being too expensive in relation to other units; 2) Templars are already (In my opinion) a better choice than Legionairres because their armor is roughly the same, they can heal, and they only cost one more. I dont think Templars need to cost more, because 5 turns is a long time in an intense game, but I think the legion needs some kind of buff thats fair to the rest of the units.

I agree with The Pendulum.

This is just theoretical thing, based off of how it looks and not how it works in the game.

ok, but will it work "ok" in game? i mean balance.

I think legionairres already have pretty tough armor.

Agreed, considering it can be buffed +4 by upgrades and effects.

Well, infantry armor/sword mastery does not affect legionairres, but with the centurion boost of +2 its still very formidable.

My bad, okay +2 added to their armor still makes them very strong.
