Description

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

Dwelling

Crusaders are recruited from the Upgraded Barracks.

Upgrading

This is the upgraded version of the Swordsman.

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.

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.
