ok, i live and die by my varangian guardsmen (drools)
oh btw 2 (individual) vg's can take out 120 woodsmen easily. But Kathas rock, and they eat catholic MAA for dinner. . But someone didn't mentions PA's or gothic knights, what's with that.

P/S: Lancers SUCK, except in SP.

VARANGUIAN

They are just awfully powerful

I was in a battle against Mongols. A whole army of heavy mongol cavalry, on a bridge map.
One single unit of Varangian was able to mow down more than 300 heavy cavalrymen, starting from one end of the bridge to finish on the other end, making a nice carpet of dead corpse, and losing less than half of their men in the operation, while being peppered by archers.

They are just unstoppable

umm they do suck after they routed your men and chase your men to the edge of the map. (exclude desert game vs camels)

thought I saw a thread somewhere about single line lancers and such?

[DemonArchangel]

lancers simply aren't cost effective online. In sp, by the time i get lancers, my cash flow is to the tune of 1.5 million florins

Any1 thinks that Gothic Foot Knights shouldn't have AP,they're already soo powerfull,why should they have AP?
Plus that they don't have Gallow-like swords,so why the AP?
