Slingers are by far the cheapest ranged units. Outfitting and feeding them does not cost much. Often slingers are recruited from among young peasants and hastily taught how to handle the sling. All they need is some natural agility and a steady eye. The rest comes with experience.

Although slingers cannot claim outstanding shooting strength and range, they are especially valuable in a protracted battle, because they never run out of ammunition. A slinger can use any stone picked up from the ground as a missile in a pinch.
