The '''Armored Lance''' (Japanese: {{ruby|{{hover|槍重装兵|Sōjūsōhei}}|{{hover|ランスアーマー|Ransuāmā}}}} ''Lance Armor'') is a [[:Category:Base classes|basic]] armored [[class]] debuting in {{FE5}}. It is one of four weapon-specific variations of the [[Knight]], specialising in the use of [[lance (weapon)|lances]], and appears only in ''Thracia 776'' and {{title|Radiant Dawn}}; in {{title|Genealogy of the Holy War}}, the Knight class itself filled its role as the basic lance-wielding armored class. It is statistically near-identical to its counterparts, the [[Armored Axe]], [[Armored Sword]] and [[Bow Armor]].

Lance Armor

Ss fe10 enemy armored lance.png
An enemy Armored Lance in Radiant Dawn.

Heavily armored knights who dominate battlefields with their powerful lances.

Unit type(s)

Armored

Weapon(s)

Lance

Skill(s)

Shove (Radiant Dawn)

The Lance Armor or Armored Lance (Japanese: ランスアーマー Lance Armor) is a basic armored class debuting in Fire Emblem: Thracia 776. It is one of four weapon-specific variations of the Knight, specializing in the use of lances, and appears only in Thracia 776, Radiant Dawn, and Engage; in Genealogy of the Holy War, the Knight class itself filled its role as the basic lance-wielding armored class. It is statistically near-identical to its counterparts, the Axe Armor, Sword Armor and Bow Armor.

It is not playable in either of its earlier appearances, and as such is not tied to a class change line; in Radiant Dawn, the lance-specific Lance General would be its hypothetical class-changed form and does have two playable members: Tauroneo and Gatrie. In Engage, the class debuts as playable and can promote into a lance-wielding General and Great Knight.
