Eagle Scout 5 Tips to Counter the Leitis Line
Their attacks completely ignore enemy melee armor making them deadly against Boyars and Teutonic Knights.
They are heavily countered by halberdiers who deal massive anti cavalry damage.
Monks can convert them easily if they are not supported by fast light cavalry.
They have relatively low pierce armor making them vulnerable to massed Arbalests.
Gathering Relics increases their attack power significantly so always prioritize map control.
