Vikings

Vikings

This civ is versatile, with strength across Ranged and Infantry -- allowing flexible strategies that adapt to any opponent. Strong anti-cavalry defense with Pikeman to hold positions against cavalry pushes. Vulnerable to massed archers -- consider aggressive play before ranged compositions develop. An infantry ram push is the signature play -- use Champion as a meatshield to protect rams pushing into enemy bases.
