    Retinue longbows and elephant artillery are two of the few units that you can have a stack of 20 of and be able to defeat most any other army composition.

    Besides, the elephant artillery looks cool :)

    Pound for pound they have to be one of the best units in the game.

    Exceptional horse archers and damn fine melee cavalry too

    Ottoman Infantry because they are ranged and melee.

    But without Doubt...Dismounted Gothic Knights.

    Lots of armour, and big swords. Whats not to like?

    Getting skewered by armor piercing javelins who can outrun them. Portuguese Jinettes are it baby!

    Hungarian Nobles: While it might not be the best unit in the game its my favorite, mainly because I have been playing as hungary mostly and these guys with some armor and some expirence pack a nice punch of ranged fire, speed from horeses, and decent melee.
    There are few things more annoying than some idiot who has never done anything trying to say definitively how something should be done.

    Scots Guard- a longbow, a longsword, plate armour, great morale, and you only need a Huge Stone Wall to build them. Fantastic.

    I have to say longbows. Yep, just any type of unit with longbows. I also like Venetian Heavy Infantry. Those hammers look cool smashing heads.
