[edit] Description

Well armed and armored, Crusaders are better all-around foot soldiers than their pikemen companions.

[edit] Dwelling

Crusaders are recruited from the Upgraded Barracks.

[edit] Upgrading

This is the upgraded version of the Swordsman.

[edit] Comments

Very high damage with its double strike. Lacks on hit points and speed though. This units Special of a 2nd attack will occur after the attacked unit retaliates. Crusader does not strike twice when retaliating to an attack.

[edit] Strategy

It has high damage, but as said, weak defense. A good trick can be to let a tougher unit stack attack first to take the retaliation.
