Aoe2 HD: Fortress (Mass Teutonic Knights, An *Unstoppable Army)

Order: Reorder
Duration: 57:38
Updated: 08 Feb 2015

In this match I played as the Teutons on the map Fortress in a 3v5 between me and the viewers. For fun I decided to go for mass Teutonic Knights, in which I made basically nothing but Teutonic Knights toward the end of the match. Initially I started the match with a Knight Rush though so that I could stockpile the resources that I needed. Teutonic Knights are extremely effective against "trash units," which are units that do not cost gold (Skirmishers, Light Cavalry, Pikemen). They are also quite strong against really most melee units and can be incredibly difficult to kill without the use of ranged units. My Teutonic Knights were very effective because my opponents did not have many ranged units besides Skirmishers until the end of the game. Teutonic Knights are actually extremely easy to counter with really anything ranged, like Hand Cannoneers, Archers, Scorpions, etc. Without ranged units, Teutonic Knights are nearly unstoppable. *But they are very stoppable with the help of really any non-Skirmisher ranged units haha.
