The upgrade of the Pikeman gives increased speed and hit points.^OffBck

The veteran pikeman is a third tier upgraded unit of the Knight faction of Heroes of Might and Magic II, recruited by building an upgraded Blacksmith in a Knight town. It is the upgraded version of the pikeman.

It boasts a higher speed than the pikeman, allowing it to better maneuver across the battlefield and reach its enemies quicker, and it also possesses a higher amount of hit points, to better last in prolonged battles.
