I give this to the rise of nations. They have more armoured troops than the AoE roster. The majority of AoE's roster are also undiciplined units like the Woad, Axemen, Huskarls, Teutonic Knights (They were a bit too confident despite being my favorite) and the Berserkers.

Majority of the Rise of Nation troops were armored elites like the Landschneckts, Samurais, Praetorians and Scutari.
