So a pack of roughly 30 units probably already covers the disadvantage. Huns save about 30-40 wood per house while Byzantines save 9 wood and 5 food per skirmisher (and 9 food, 5 wood per spear). When Byzantines even catch up with the economical advantage of the Huns.

This especially holds true in feudal age trashwars. When engaging in a trashwar against these heirs of the Roman empire, you better brace up to learn some Latin. Their cheap trashunits are unprecedented. Camels, Skirmishers, Spearmen, Pikemen, Halberdiers cost -25%Īrguably the best bonus in the Byzantine arsenal. So a great bonus for defensive building and it makes Byzantine castles very fierce opponents in trebuchet wars (a whopping 6720 HP without upgrades). For example a town center in the castle age: regular civs need 1:30 minutes to construct 2400 HP, while Byzantines need exactly the same time to construct their 3120 HP TC. Thus a Byzantine villager does not need more time to construct a building than any other civ. Alongside the bonus also comes an indirect build speed advantage.

This bonus is actually double sided and that extra side is not documented anywhere in the techtree.
