Their castles have 13 range and they have access to Heated Shot. This means death to all ships save Elite Canon Galleons and Turkish Cannon Galleons. It also allows for cover-fire during battles that no other civilization has access to (The Koreans can try, however it requires garrisoning archers in their long-range towers to achieve volleys, thus taking up population room). Combined with their monks healing from twice as far away and their varied Siege weapons, Teutons excel fighting in the shadow of their castles, both defensively and when their castles are placed offensively.
