Unit		Description	Required space on ships
	Swordsmen	Swordsmen are the heart of your army. This unit is well outfitted and kan handle any area type.	1
	Archers	Archers are usually recruited cheaply from the population. They are badly outfitted for close combat. However, the supporting fire from archers is often a deciding factor for combat, especially during the defense of castles.	1
	Horsemen	The horsemen are the elite unit of your army. Most of them are younger sons of small noble houses, who strive for fame and honour. On the open plains attacks by the cavalry have a devastating effect on the enemy. But their mobility is strongly impaired in the cramped castles and towns, in woods, and in mountains and they are not suitable for combat in these areas.	2
	Ballista	Ballistas are weapons that can be used on the field similar to archers. They provide an additional bonus vor heavy supporting fire (like the archers' bonus). The maximum bonus is reached when an army contains at least 10% ballistas. A slot in a castle with ballistas contains 4 ballistas, that are counted towards the militia only. No infantry is needed for the transport of ballistas.	4
	Siege Tower	Siege towers can only be used during attacks on castles. Every siege tower has a capacity of 100 men. Every soldier that gets a spot inside a tower is worth 1.5 men during sieges. This is also true for allied men. The other men use scaling ladders (if researched by the respective armies' owner). The trasnsport of siege towers requires infantry.	20
	Trebuchet	Trebuchets are purely siege units. They cause 3-5 points of damage to the castle. The maximum achievable damage is 80% of the castle's bonus. The transport of trebuchets requires infantry.	20
	Spy	Spies are secretly acting units. They are not added towards armies, but always operate alone by themselves - on foot, on their own little boats, or in a carrier ship. Their abilities are not to be underestimated and are further described under Espionage.	2 or their own boat
	Ships	Ships play an important role. More is written under Ships.

^{Training contracts may be cancelled at any time. 90% of the invested ressources are returned.}

Armies consisting solely of horsemen can move 2 fields each turn. Combat will cancel the second step, except if the conquered field was completely undefended. In this circumstance, horsemen can effectively conquere two fields each turn. The cavalry does not necessarily move before the infantry.

If a defending army has to retract, all siege weapons (including ballistas) are destroyed to prevent them from hindering the withdrawal or falling into enemy's hand.
