They are the first standard unit of this class, replacing the now-obsolete Light Infantry. Arquebusiers are trained at the Barracks and are effective against all types of Infantry, but very weak against both Light and Heavy Cavalry. Arquebusiers complement the slower moving melee Elite Pikemen, which are much more effective against Cavalry, but lose to Infantry. Note that Arquebusiers and the still-available Crossbowmen of the Medieval Age fulfill a similar role in combat. Aside from the different resources required to train the units, Crossbowmen have a higher rate of fire and deal somewhat more damage over time against Heavy Infantry and Ranged Cavalry, but in turn have less hit points and are more easily killed. Arquebusiers also have damage bonuses against Foot Archers such as Crossbowmen, making them more versatile against different types of Infantry. Crossbowmen eventually upgrade to the next unit in the Gunpowder Infantry class, Musketeers, in the Enlightenment Age.", "Although costing more than Arbalest Infantry, the arquebusier has a difference: it hits harder, further, but requires knowledge in addition to food and timber.

The powerful attack of an arquebus also deals substantially more damage, so a full-frontal assault on arquebusiers with anything other than elite heavy cavalry normally ends in disaster. While they will do some damage to cavalry, they will not be able to withstand a determined charge by heavy cavalry. Additionally, arquebusiers are clearly no match for siege machines - use your own siege machines or artillery instead to counter them. Any faction which does not have a unique cavalry in the Imperial Era, such as the Mongols and the Byzantines, may find themselves at a disadvantage against this new weapon, as their own heavy cavalry (Mailed Lancers, Tarkhans and Pronoiaroi) like knights do not have any protection from arquebus fire - they will have to amass more guns and hope for the best. Fortunately, there are some who are capable of doing this better than others. Spanish tercio gunners can function in the same way as chivalric orders normally do, while the Chinese enjoy a cost advantage in recruitment, and can even create them from the Castle Age onward. In Northern Europe, Arquebusiers can be upgraded to Landsknecht Gunners, who have a better training speed and are also more efficient than normal Arquebusiers. Gunpowder was first discovered possibly as early as the Tang dynasty in China. Although its explosive qualities were soon seized upon by experts realising its potential military use, modern firearms did not make an appearance worldwide until the Hundred Years' War. The first gunpowder weapons were probably grenades, which were loaded in traction machines such as trebuchets, and while gunpowder weapons firing projectiles were soon invented in China and elsewhere, their reliability as a primary weapon was so low that archers continued to remain the main missile component of any defensive force despite firearms being easier to use than traditional bows and crossbows; this was the one reason why military leaders and authors such as Miyamoto Musashi, Niccol\u00F2 Machiavelli and Shaka Zulu often eschewed firearms for simpler but harder to operate weaponry such as javelins or bows. In the case of the last, usage of javelins and archery persisted despite the introduction of exponentially improved firearms in the West during the late 19th century, with tragic results.", "Though arquebusiers did not have as great a range as crossbowmen, what they lacked in distance, they made up for in power.
