Printable unit guide (STW, STW WE, MTW and MTW VI) in Word by frogbeastegg.
The Complete Total War Unit Guide by Frogbeastegg
This guide is the work of Frogbeastegg, unless otherwise indicated. If you want a copy of this guide on your website please ask and I will be more than happy to agree. This guide took me months, don’t steal it.
This printable guide is up to date and correct as of 12th January 2004, for recent additions check the on-line guide at: https://forums.totalwar.org/vb/showthread.php?t=31444
Confused by cavalry? Annoyed by archers? Pounded by Polearms? Then this is the guide for you! This guide contains an in-depth analysis of every single unit and unit class to appear in the Total War series. It tells you what the units do, what they don’t do and explains the differences between units of the same class. You will also find the most important unit stats in here. This guide is written for single player but it should hold up well in multiplayer, just remember that Total War changes to a whole new game when your up against another human. This guide also assumes a basic knowledge of the principles of battle, you should know how to manoeuvre behind your opponent, ensure your troops have the best position etc. If you are a complete beginner or don’t know the basics of the battlefield take a look at the Beginner’s Guide to Medieval: Total War at:

NB: All the screenshots in this guide have been enhanced with PaintShop Pro in an effort to make them clearer. Sadly some picture quality has been lost in the making of this document, if you want to see better quality images you will have to hit the net versions of this guide. Also note that the pictures in the chapter headings are not intended to demonstrate good deployment of units, they are intended to break up the 105 page long text and look good!
I should probably add that I chose the factions for the screenshots based on colour contrasts to make the two sides as clear as possible. No bias is intended.
