Oarsman

Description
The melee unit for the Pirates. They have very low attack levels.

Strategy
At first glance this unit may be seen as a poor melee unit, as his dps is the lowest of any melee unit, but he has a niche. The oarsmen has high health and high speed, which makes it very good for scouting. However, this is debatable because it is the most expensive melee troop in the game. If you need a melee unit to scout, this is a safer bet than the skeleton and he only costs 10 bricks more. Beware that a skeleton will beat the oarsman out in a 1v1 battle though, so if you know your opponent uses skeletons to scout it would be best to pick another melee unit to beat them out.
