Their heavy pike and metal armour make pikemen quite slow to move but also make them the ultimate defensive unit.  They are able to take a lot of damage and are ideal guards for blocking access to areas of the castle. They are only moderately useful in attacks as their rather slow speed makes them very vulnerable to ranged attacks. While pikemen can still handle archers somewhat well, crossbowmen will make short work of them.
