They are elite infantry that can seriously harm anything in reach, and will win almost any Infantry fight. Overall, Armoured Swordsmen can be thought of as a less expensive version of some Catholic factions’ Dismounted Feudal Knights. They have comparable fighting ability to the best Dismounted Knights, while having a low upkeep of 150 as opposed to the more common 225; this makes them incredibly valuable. They are have a larger recruitment pool than Dismounted Knights, although they require more investment to recruit as well.
