Britons
Archer Civilization
Unique Unit: Longbowman (long range archer)
Unique Technology: Yeomen (increases the range of archers and attack of towers)
Team Bonus: Archery Ranges 20% faster
Extras: Town Centers -50%, Foot Archers +1 range in castle age +2 in imperial age, and Shepards work 25% faster
Notes: Overall, an excellent team, the only major faults are lack of updated siege weapons, and no Paladins. They have the full archer and infantry technologys.
Recommendation? Yes, if you build enough archers, you can protect your weak siege weapons from any enemy coming close.
