Ragusa is your starting castle and a promising starting point for expansion. While the Milanese have the advantage of being compact & central, the Venetian realm is somewhat dispersed and open to attack from multiple enemies. Venice have an even more forbidding looking start than Milan.

Venice are extremely popular for online battles due to the quality & cost-effective troops at their disposal. For elite cavalry units, Venice will have to depend on their Crusading Order Knights. Men-at-Arms provide a similar unit from castles. Venice have a somewhat light selection of cavalry in the early stages of the campaign but later Broken Lances become available and these are retrainable in cities. Mounted Crossbowmen allow for a very different style of game.

Venice also have access to a full complement of artillery and if youвЂ™re a fan of Ribault guns, then the Venetian Monster Ribault might be just what the doctor ordered for a dose of fun. Venice are one of the few factions to have access to Musketeers and while useless in melee, they are more than capable of causing damage & lowering morale if protected. Venetian Archers are armoured archers in a similar vein to the French Scots Guard units and can withstand melee better than most other archers. Dismounted Broken Lances & Men-at-Arms are useful units but they are by far surpassed by the Venetian Heavy Infantry. They donвЂ™t have the morale of Dismounted Feudal Knights but a Carroccio Standard will fix that very quickly. They come armed with heavy armour-piercing mallets and are protected with shields. Venetian Heavy Infantry are however the standout unit available to Venice. For castle recruited infantry Armoured Spearmen are good quality spearmen but many players would prefer to use Italian Spear Militia as their anti-cavalry infantry for ease of retraining. The Pavise Crossbow Militia are easily retrainable and a perfect means of raining death upon your enemies. Italian Cavalry Militia are also stronger than most Cavalry Militias and are quite adequate when access to castle-recruited cavalry is limited. The ubiquitous Italian Spear Militia can easily form the backbone of any Venetian army. Like the other Italian factions, Venice begin the game surrounded by enemies but have numerous strong units to make them more than capable of securing victory.
