Strengths and Weaknesses:
Written in this format:
Unit A > Unit B
Where Unit A is weak against Unit B                      

Infantry > Cavalry
Mounted Units > Pikeman, Longswordsman, Urza Guard
Pikeman > Paviser? Infantry?
Most units > Musketeer
Musketeer > Fast units (Cavalry, Savage Cavalry) and Long-range units (Archer, Mage)
Paviser > Mage
Mage > Fast units
Paviser > Cavalry
Melee units are blocked by Pavisers, making them vulnerable to ranged units.
Arbalist > ? (Maybe fast units)
Fast units > Pikemen/Paviser depends. Mounted > Pikemen, others > Paviser
Savage Units > ? (This is quite difficult, but I've never really had a problem with savages, so I have no idea what their weakness could be. I would just go with the fact that their weaknesses are the same as the other units.)
Use pavisers like walls to block units so your other units can destroy enemies that are blocked.
Unfortunately, mages are EXTREMELY OP against any melee units,especially when they all hone in on a single hero (Carter died is less than five seconds when this happened). Best way to kill mages is to rush them with mounted units (make sure they don't get distracted by pikemen or pavisers or they will insta-die) or to shoot them with archers/musketeers. Mages tend to target either close units to them or distracted units. I have a strategy where I use pavisers to block units and pikemen to block mounted units and I then use mages to destroy the hero commanding the squad that is blocked. I suggest you try that too.
