Basic Anti Units

When gold is nowhere to be found and you are getting only few amount of gold from the trade units then the best units to be used are

1.Light cavalry
2.hussar
3.halberdier
4.Elite Skirmisher

The basic anti units for mostly all the units in the game are

1.halberdier:
       It is the basic anti unit for all the mounted units in the game.Based on the civilizations after full upgrades in blacksmith the attack of the halberdier varies..

a)  Aztec civilization did not have halberdier research but their unique technology "Garland wars" makes their attack to 12

b) Celts halberdier is quicker than the any other civilization halberdier

c) Japanese halberdier is having attack "10" like all other civilizations but they are faster in attack because of their civilization bonus.So Japanese halberdier is the strongest among all the civilization halerdiers.

      halberdiers kill mostly all the mounted units but cataphract is stronger against infantry so halberdiers are weak against the cataphract. If your enemy produces large mass of halberdiers, the best anti unit against them is the Teutonic knight.It easily kills 7 halberdiers.Champions also do the job but not efficient like Teutonic knights.
 
2.Elite Skirmisher
        It is the basic anti unit for all the ranged units. After the gold got over , the food and wood units ( halberdier and skirmishers ) serves well. the halberdiers counter all the mounted units and skirmishers counters the ranged units. With few siege unit support we can take down the enemy.

when the enemy creates large mass of skirmishers the best anti units are the mounted units. In the lengthy games Hussar does the job well since it costs only food.
