A party of say... 12 Skirmishers, with less or more of the archer line, longbowmen if you're a briton, one or two catapults of any or more archers if you're not. In the ideal circumstance.

Towers, castles, towncenters chews em up.

Cataphracts can easily reach them and just mauls them.

The Frank calvary can reach them (but expect losses along the way, these are anti-calvary, regardless on how squishy they are)

Huskarl spam eats everything the moment you get Profusion and a barracks down.

Woad Raiders can in fact slice em up.
