Why does everyone think that tarkans are useless? They're one of the best siege/raiding units in the game. Throw them in a transport, send them down a river, unload and  go whackamole with enemy tcs and vills. With 170 hps and 7 pierce armor they're practically immune to archer and castle fire, and they're fast enough to worm through any enemy melee defenders. A Tarkan is not a combat unit  it is a siege unit. Their only downside is that they're a little expensive.

Plumed archer is also not bad. Cheap, high HP and pierce armor, they are a sort of anti-archer archer. In large groups they can counter enemy HC's, and small raiding parties can be used to get behind enemy lines and snipe villagers.

Condotierre is generally a stupid unit, basically a worse (albeit cheap) version of the Mayan eagle warrior. It would have been great if their bonus was against something else, and not gunpowder units.

From AoC/AoK there were no truly bad UU's, except maybe the Chu Ko Nu, and that was only because I find it too slow. I usually don't bother training them so it's not a big deal.
