Best land unit is the monk if you upgrade it enough. They are long range, they heal each other, they convert mass armies if you know how to do it right, and combine them with Halberdiers just incase of a huge horse army coming, and monks are pretty unstoppable.

I have to agree with the original poster im always tuetons because they have the best infantry in the game

i like the goth unique unit, the huskarl. They have awesome defence against arrows and you can pump them from all of your forward barracks's as well as your castles. And they look cool

I love War Elephants and I also think that I'm cheating because of it. I HATE pikemen more than anything else. They're only good at mounted units. That's it. They're weak against any other unit. That sucks! I take champions and siege units and destroy other bases, NOT pikemen.

DUUH!!! PICKES R USED TO ATTACK MOUNTED UNITS NOT SWORDSMAN OR ARCHERS. y do u think their pikes r so long? its for attack mounted things from a distance. not attack things upclose. thats y swords kill them becuz they cannot move their pikes in time to parry a swords blow. they dont know martial arts to stop a sword from besting thier pikes.

PS.DONT GET PIKES IF ENEMY DONT HAVE MOUNTED UNITS

um i think it's that horse uh.... damn I can't think of the name, it is the one that you can upgrade to the picture with a golden coloring around it not the horse archer either. could someone tell me what it is i havn't played the game for a short time, since i got the stronghold crusader game with the 16 computer people.

THE UNIT U TALKING ABOUT IS PALADEN the golden guys with the white fluffy hats. THEY R STRONG, btu they do not best Teutonic Knights

my favourite unit has to be the war elephant, it is amazing, i also cannot stand pikemen, totally useless

A defensive point? I don't know why, but I always think of offensive views. Champions inside rams, I've tried that. It's a pretty good group, especially if it's a Siege Ram.

Yeah, a bunch of Champions inside a group of battering rams is definately fun. I guess I was thinking from a defensive point of view. When the rush of 20 horses comes through and is met by my Pikemen... that's fun too.
