These units are equipped well enough to match - or take out - most other troops of their tier in other kingdoms. Most carry throwing weapons, which can be useful in softening up or even occasionally one-hit killing enemy troops before rushing into battle. Trained Warriors are quite capable of holding their own in toe-to-toe melee battles and can block enemy arrows with their shield, making them decent defensively. They are no match for heavy cavalry, though, and will be cut down easily if they are not protected by other troops.
Trained Warriors are useful in protecting your archers from melee troops. Elite cavalry charges are a useful counter tactic against them, therefore it would be wise to pair them up with higher tier Nord troops such as Huscarls, or Rhodok Spearmen and Swadian Sergeants.
With the re-introduction of throwing weapons among your ranks, you will quickly find the additional firepower, as well as hand-to-hand skill, very useful against any infantry. The Trained Warriors' missile skill is matched by Sarranid Infantry and their hand-to-hand skill is matched by dismounted Swadian Knights, but no soldier matches both, making them some of the most efficient infantry for their pay.
