Metallurgy, the next step in the development of metal working, delivers a new level of sophistication to Renaissance weaponry and prepares its entrance into the Modern age. It also unlocks a variety of new units. Lancers are a harder-hitting version of Knights. They have several more points of Combat Strength and receive a bonus against mounted units. However, they have a penalty during defense, making them brittle if they aren't defended. Hakkapeliitta are unique Swedish Lancers that can interact with Great Generals and have a 15% combat bonus.

abstract
| - Metallurgy, the next step in the development of metal working, delivers a new level of sophistication to Renaissance weaponry and prepares its entrance into the Modern age. It also unlocks a variety of new units. Lancers are a harder-hitting version of Knights. They have several more points of Combat Strength and receive a bonus against mounted units. However, they have a penalty during defense, making them brittle if they aren't defended. Sipahi are unique Ottoman Lancers that are even faster than regular Lancers. They can pillage in enemy territory without breaking stride, making them the single best sabotage unit in the game. Hakkapeliitta are unique Swedish Lancers that can interact with Great Generals and have a 15% combat bonus. Winged Hussars are unique Polish Lancers that can have extra strength, and two promotions (Formation I and Shock I). It can force defending enemy troops to withdraw.
