-Each of the four hero classes have different playstyles, this is because each specialises in a different aspect of combat. This is the same across all four character class.

 ====Chosen Marksman=====
-Chosen Marksman has a very simple playstyle as the main objective is to fire your crossbow bolts both into the Nords at the shieldwall, or towards the ranged Nords who gather outside the barricades. Aiming at the Nords at the shieldwall is a very effective method for relieving stress and pressure on the barricades and the shielders. Also this is a good tactic for waves with little ranged or if it is a very tough melee wave e.g. Juggernauts or Entranced Berserkers. Also it may be a good idea to shoot into this area if all the windows or peeking spots are taken to avoid double peeking taking place.

-Shooting at the ranged on the other hand is also very helpful as it speeds up the waves by quite a large amount. Not only do you quickly rack up kills, you also help the shielders and the rest of the team. To be most effective focus the stronger ranged units first who can kill your team. Ones to aim out for are the Ballistamen who carry a big shot, or the siege masters who wear heraldic armour. They can be spotted easily as they have the nordic banner on their armour. One negative to this class is that if you get into close combat with tougher Nords, due to your lack of tankiness and combat prowess you will often lose the duel as your weapon will bounce off of the Nords' armour.

-Another tip is to avoid peeking on waves 8 on hard and wave 12 on Ragnarok as this wave have the infamous Tricksters and Royal Assasins. This is due to there unique throwing weapon which allows them to teleport on top of you and infiltrate the base. This will often cause chaos and havoc leading to Swadians losing their lives.

 ====Crossbowman Hero Classes====

 The idea for this hero class is pretty simple: higher Crossbow WPF for faster shooting.  This hero class also gives a Power Strike increase of 1 (equal to ~8% damage in melee) and a decent Athletics and Shield increase of 2 each.  To be as generic as possible, this class also gets the usual 50 One handed, 40 Two handed, and slightly higher 30 Polearm WPF (as compared to 25) boosts to make them more useful if they ever happen to be required to slash.  Hopefully this is never the case.
-**Aventurier**
-Again, simple design.  High One handed WPF (85 more, meaning an approximate 10% increase in damage and 3-4 weapon speed), moderate Two handed and Polearm increase for those "OH NO _________ ARE ALL DEAD AND I NEED TO GO SLASH!" moments.  Unlike the other two Sharpshooter hero classes, however, this one gets a 3 Athletics boost (as compared to 2).  This allows this hero to get around the base faster and use that one hand skill to the benefit of the team.  Like Chosen Marksman, this class gets an additional 2 Shield, which could be useful if a shielder goes down and there aren't any to spare.  This class also gets a Power strike increase of 2, as compared to the Chosen Marksman increase of 1, meaning this class can do a bit more melee damage.  This fits in well with the One handed WPF increase.
