Norman Knights (M2TW Unit)
Sicilian Norman knights, equipped in typical feudal knightly fashion with lances and armor, but fighting exceptionally well.
Overview
Of all the knights of Europe, the Normans are the most renowned. Their Viking heritage and lust for battle has led many to seek their fortune abroad, especially in Southern Italy. Here two adventurers, Robert and Roger Guiscard have established a formidable kingdom which employs many of their countrymen. The Norman Knight's exceptional ferocity, and heavy armour make him feared on any battlefield.
Details
Norman knights have a favorable combination of high speed, high power, and moderate building requirements. They move with the speed of mailed knights while having better stamina, fight as well as chivalric knights except on the charge, and have the infrastructure requirements of feudal knights.
This combination makes Norman Knights an extremely useful unit, among the best cavalry in the game and a great boon to Sicily.
