Overview

Elite Eagle Warrior: Elite Eagle Warriors use speed and conversion resistance to pressure Monks, siege, and mounted units. Their mobility gives them a way to raid or reach support units that a slower infantry line cannot catch.

Plan and execution

Move in a grouped force, scout for exposed Monks or siege, and strike the support line before turning toward economy. Use their speed to withdraw from a frontline that favors the opponent, and keep enough vision to choose the next target.

Risks and adaptation

They are not designed to win every infantry fight. Avoid running them into a prepared melee line or defensive building, and use a different unit to handle strong foot infantry.
