Footman

General
The Footman has 480 Health and is usually located in front of the gates of Team Bases. Most of the time, it is paired up with another footman and an archer. Many teams in GvG try to have one player go out and "assasinate" these, as they are not inside of the base and are vulnerable. This way, attacking the opposing guild hall becomes easier. Also, when "Victory or death!" comes, the opposing guild hall will have 3 less soldiers than you, providing a major advantage to get to the Guild Lord.
