Overview
Eagle Warrior: Eagle Warriors are fast infantry with conversion resistance and bonuses against Monks, siege, and mounted units. Their mobility gives them a useful raiding line in civilizations that do not use ordinary cavalry.
Plan and execution
Use Eagles to scout and pressure isolated support units, then turn on Monks or siege when the main army engages elsewhere. Keep them moving between targets and pull away from a stronger infantry formation instead of forcing a general melee.
Risks and adaptation
Eagles do not excel against every infantry counter and can be stopped by strong melee units. Avoid running them into a defended base or splitting the group so small that it cannot remove its target.
