the most complete unit. If you do not have Paladins, Boyars or War Elephants is very hard to fight them. They defeat EVERY infantry unit (also pikeman line and samurai), they can also defeat camel line (mamelukes too), which were supposed to kill cavalry, they do well against foot archers and siege unit. The best way is to use many cavalry archers since their pierce armor is much worse than the knight line ones. Luckly for the opponent, Byzantines can't research blast furnace and don't have bloodlines, meaning that paladins can take them down, in one vs one and in group, even with logistica reaserched.
