Crossbowmen and Knights are over-dominating the meta in Castle Age, More Unit-Variety is better

An important issue in the current metagame.

The only exceptions I can see are the Meso/Indians/Saracens for knights and Spanish/Bulgarians/Burmese for the crossbows. I believe that this leads to a very stale metagame and can easily become boring to watch even…
