English Billmen

[lugh]

Yeah billmen kick serious ass. Though I find Longbowmen more useful, especially where there range helps, like when your assaulting over a bridge, line your longbow along the shore to soften up the enemy. Or if your attacking uphill, you dont get cut up nearly so much by enemy archers.

Billmen are aces but I find longbowmen run out of ammo way too quickly. I much prefer the arbalesters.

They have the same amount of ammo (28) but I know what you mean, the xbow units tend to have some ammo left, its just they reload a lot slower.
I just checked their stats, apparently the arbalest is more accurate and lethal and has the same range, at least if Im reading the stats properly.
I'll have to re think my unit training.

the best units in the game are sill the tukish one at the end ( late period no mater how fast you build due to patches) but they take to long to get.
