Talk:Samurai (Age of Empires II)/@comment-93.39.180.29-20150429174424

samurais are the best infantry unit in the game and i'll explain why.

1) they move quite fast (like huskarls and more or less like berserkers)

2) they are extrremely cost effective (60 food and 30 gold for a full upgraded samurai is very low considering their power)

3) they are produced NEARLY INSTANTLY (more or less at the same speed of huskarls in barracks after all unique technologies researched), with crenellation researched you get a samurai in more or less 3 second, allowing you to choose them instead of champions to made an army

4) they are strong with a lot of powerful units

5) they move and attack fast, and in group they own EVEN teutonic knights, which are supposed to be more powerful (30 samurais kill by far 30 teutonic knights, without considering their cheapness)
