Champi Warrior Castle Age transition
Champi Warrior: Champi Warriors fill a basic Castle Age infantry role while retaining enough mobility to support raids. When the line is part of the plan, its upgrade adds enough combat value to deserve early consideration.

Overview
Champi Warrior: Champi Warriors fill a basic Castle Age infantry role while retaining enough mobility to support raids. When the line is part of the plan, its upgrade adds enough combat value to deserve early consideration.
Plan and execution
Use Champi Warriors to pressure exposed economy or support a push where infantry can stay near the main army. Research the relevant upgrade when the line is seeing regular use, then keep the group together and add ranged support against units that can kite it.
Risks and adaptation
The unit does not automatically outperform every generic infantry option. Avoid investing in its upgrade when the opponent has shifted to counters or when the economy needs resources for a more urgent response.
