My best land unit is going to be the Teutonic Knight. The unit may be slower than hell, but it is a really good unit.

Well, you need to explain it a little better. You've stumped me. Is it a Cataphract?????

I think that is what it is called, i am not good at explaining things.

That's ok. The Cataphracts don't really have a golden outline. I don't think any of the unique units have a golden outline. I think they may be from the Age of Empires 1. The Cataphract, Ballista Towers, Helepolises, and more units have a golden outline. I think you have the wrong game, dude.This message was edited by Greycatmon on Dec 08 2004.

I dunno if I have a favorite. I'm a fan of pikemen simply because they're so cheap and offer a good disctraction.
The War Elephants are pretty hardcore, though. I feel like I'm cheating when I use them.

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.

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.

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.

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

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
