You would think that common sense would tell you the pikemen would stand guard on the front lines of anything you've read/seen from history. You would figure they would line up in front of the archers with pikes ready and guarding.
But then you can argue the cavalry would come around from the rear to attack the archers, but pikemen don't typically charge in for an attack... That's the swordsman's responsibility, so would it be too hard for the pikemen to set up around the archers?
I, too, believe the pikeman on the game is a little low in defense power. Pikemen were created as a main source of defense, and it appears they're not doing their job in this game.
All I can say to both of you is this:
Stop making pikemen because they're not worth it.
Any combat situation I have they die and the archer's die... Not the swordsmen even though I have greater numbers of them.
Just my opinion.
