It is the most famous Spanish unit EVER and it dominated the battlefields of that era.

Conquistadores were never a unit at all being just a small gang of gold-hungry thugs who were either murdering Native peoples or killing each other.

Go read the thread on this lower down on this forum for more.

Picking the "Conquistadore" as a UU reduces the game to Fantasy.

You mean that this isn't a fantasy game?

Everything I have done in this game actuallyhappened ?

Wow!

Well, gee, can't stand being beaten?

1) Funny, 54 people disagree with you.
2) *yawn* Who cares?
3) Haha, you mean the one where I challenged you and someone else had to do it because you'd know you would lose?
4) Oh my! I guess I'll have to let Germany and France capture all of my cities around 400 AD when I'm Caesar. Waitaminute, he wasn't ALIVE then! And France is in China, Germany in Africa, and I'm in Central America! Oh my goodness, I'm going into shock.

It should be a Tercio, just because a Conquistador UU just doesn't fit into the game mechanics.
