Hero Type
Hero Types:
All heroes are identified by a personal title as well as a Hero Type. A Hero's type has a direct effect on the types of items that particular hero is capable of equipping.
Example: only Generals can equip Banners.
By limiting the types of equipment a Hero can get, it limits the equipment sets a Hero is capable of accessing.
Example: the Tribal Equipment Set gives a bonus of +10 to Bronze Army. This Set is composed of Tribal Headgear, Tribal Armor and Tribal Banner. This means that only Generals Type Heroes can equip this set completely and gain access to this bonus.
