Effect and affected unidades
The Cuarteles upgrade advances Spearmen to Pikemen, improving their ability to punish caballería and other mounted unidades. They are a cost-effective screen for archers or asedio, but their value falls when the opponent switches to unidades that can ataque from range or simply disengage. (Piquero, Lancero, Piquero, Piquero, unidades)
Research cost and timing
Research Piquero when enemy caballería is becoming a regular threat or when your main army needs a screen. The upgrade is most useful if you already have Spearmen to improve; consider Alabardero later if the game reaches Edad Imperial and caballería remains important. (Edad de los Castillos, Cuarteles, Comida, Oro, unidades)
Efecto y momento de investigación
La mejora de Piquero convierte a los Lanceros en infantería más eficaz contra caballería. Disponible en la Edad de los Castillos; se investiga en el Cuartel por 300 de comida y 600 de oro durante 50 segundos. Puede inclinar el combate si el rival depende de unidades montadas, pero compara su coste con el número de lanceros disponibles. (Piquero, Cuarteles)
