Default Re: Repels and the pike square

I'm curious if anyone someone feel that pikeneers (odd word) are tactically viable as a unit. As far as my own testing shows it's a lot better a few burly high protection units with shields at the front, than a whole regiment of pikemen.

ME Tien'Chi is a good example of this. The pikemen have just barely better survival rate then a common militia. His shield and sword wielding "brother" however tends to actually survive half of the time.

Perhaps I'm not using them right? Based on the mechanics of the game what is the best use of these kind of units?
