Byzantine Infantry are also recruitable at cities, allowing you to focus on both your military and your economy while still having access to these units. Byzantine Infantry are a decent heavy infantry unit, though will not stand up to the most elite infantry units, especially later in the game. They are cheap though, and do have mail armour, thus allowing them some protection against missiles. They can easily dispatch almost all light infantry and light cavalry, though will struggle against heavy cavalry. This unit should make up the bulk of your army in the middle-game. Overall, a unit, which is extremely cost-efficient.
