Formidable warriors armed with two-handed axes and protected by mail armour.
These Axe-wielding English mercenaries were an elite body of the formerly Saxon armies. Armed with a two-handed axe and mail they present stiff opposition to all who would invade England.

Saxon Huscarls are available in England until 1180 and in Northern Germany until 1160.
