All units actually have two values, one is the Line of Sight and other is the Search Radius. Line of Sight is what you see, while Search Radius is what the unit actually sees. Some units have equal values for both, while others have -1 Search Radius compared to Line of Sight. For units with discrepancies in their LoS and SR values, if a unit is standing outside their SR but in their LoS, you can see the enemy unit but your unit itself cannot.

For example a Champion has both of 5, so they'll attack any unit they see. Two-Handed Swordsmen on the other hand have 5 Line of Sight but only 4 Search Radius. Hence THS won't attack units outside a four tile radius by default, as they can't actually 'see' them. Long Swordsmen have both of 4. Elite Teutonic Knights have a LoS of 5 but a SR of only 3 tiles.

Tracking increases both Line of Sight and Search Radius by +2.

Cavalry has no equivalent technology and hence has fairly poor line of sight compared to Infantry and Archers.
