The first of two mainstream medium infantry units, swordsmen make up the rank and file of Castle Age armies. With their large kiteshields and chainmail armour, swordsmen constitute a force to be reckoned with against your opponents' archers and undefended flanks. Like all light infantry, however, they have a serious problem with heavy cavalry units and frontal assaults by units in numbers equal to them - 20 knights will easily vanquish 20 swordsmen in a single match. Thus, your swordsmen like all light infantry should always be placed on the wings of your army, or used as a flanking force at all time. This is feasible given their fleetness of foot. Another feasible but far more risky tactic using swordsmen is the sword rush, given the relative cheap cost for producing swordsmen: in the time that it takes to create 1 pikeman, you could easily create at least 2 bodies of swordsmen. Swordsmen, however, are not the only light infantry types that anyone may hope to use \u2014 Castle Age light infantry make up the largest number of unique units, insofar as equipment and tactics are concerned. As usual, most Asian nations however prefer to use overwhelming numbers as opposed to individual skill and discipline to crush their foes. In Europe and Africa, regional variations have resulted in different areas of specialisation. For instance, German states have the ability to train knightly infantry known as Palatinate Burgm\u00E4nner (German, \"castellans\"). These are heavily armoured warriors, bearing sword and shield whose specialty is taking down mercenaries. Similar units can also be found in Sicily, where they are not known instead as Milites (Latin miles, \"soldier\") and enjoy and even witer range of targets. On the other side of the Oder, the Poles are also known for Lithuanian axemen, warriors who are trained slower but have immense amounts of hitpoints, making them literally meat shields, while the Moors are known for recruiting Muslim Africans with poor armour and hitpoints, but a keen ability to survive in harsh environments, while the Danes of the far north are known for their prowess in demolishing buildings."@en . .
