Heres a guide of the troops and weaknesess in Warlords:Call to Arms

Swordsman-a tough unit but does not have that much range.hard to kill due to its fast attack speed.to kill just use some halberders or horse men on it.

Spearman-a medium unit.has a long range but kinda weak armor.easy to kill with swords man.

Archer-a medium unit.easy to kill from close range but tough in long range.fires arrows at your troops.any unit can kill it.

Scout-a weak unit.soooooooooooooooooooooooooooo easy to kill.good for attacking empty spots of the enemy.any unit will kill it.

Mage-a medium unit.easy to kill at close range but hard in long range.fires a ball of magic at you.any unit can kill it.

Horsemen-strong units on horses.good for driving the enemy back.weak with archers, spearmen, or swordsmen.

Mountain Troll-a suuuuuuuper tough unit.one hit of its weapon is doom.to kill, i suggest that you should use a lot of swordsmen, spearmen, long swordsmen, or horsemen.

Whirler-a tough unit.hard to kill due to its weapon, the whirl spear.to kill, just use swordsmen, lots of swordsmen on it.

Spearmaster-an upgraded spearman.very hard to kill due to its flipping and fast attacks.to kill use lots of swords man.

Flailer-a very tough unit.uses a weapon called the flail.this unit can deal devastating damages to your troops.to kill just simply use horsmen or spearmen.

Spear Thrower-an easy unit.easy to kill due to its slow speed of attack.to kill use long ranged units or horse men.

Royal Guard-a very tough unit.armed with a long lance, this unit is hard to kill.its hard to go neer this unit too because of its long range weapon.to kill use archers or spear throwers.

Axe Thrower-a medium unit.very easy to kill because it only focuses in long ranges.to kill, just use any unit with a medium or high armor.

Thats my guide.

Spearman
Pro:Fastest production, fast movement, High Attack Speed and easy to massiving and rush a single line and deal with archer at far away.
Con:weak to many kinds of units, no amount no use.
How to Kill:A swordsman is enough. If it is quite near your own spawn line,Halberdier could be a faster choice.

Swordsman:
Pro:High attack rate with medium attack(higher DPS),tough but still produce faster than any other strong unit. Good for massiving and good to deal with very strong unit, when grouped in single line.
Con:Too normal that usually forget their existence. Attack Range are short.
How to Kill:Halberdier could hit them for longer range and take it down without being touched. Or simply Long swordsman.

Archer
Pro:Hit enemy from far,nearly unbeatable if greatly massived.
Con:Slow movement, Low attack rate, Weak when close. hard to deal with fast, tough units, especially mounted.
How to Kill: Mounted units is the best, but usually replace it by spearman, swordsman or axeman.

Halberdier
Pro: High firepower, long attack range,fast production(only slower than spearman and scout) hence ideal on spawn line defense.
Con: Slow movement, weak to ranged units at far away.
How to Kill:Ranged unit.

Axeman
Pro:High attack and fast movement. Strike when moving thus drive enemy back away.
Con:slower production(Slowest among the basic units.)weaker than swordsman, easily being outranged.(My axeman always killed by enemy halberdier.)
How to Kill: Swordsman,Halberdier(My own choice.).

Scout
Pro:VERY fast movement and fast product. Good for rush through the no man lane.
Con:VERY weak.
How to Kill: anything will do.

Mage
Pro:Higher firepower (compare to archer),a little bit faster than archer.
Con:Very weak, easily being intercepted by halberdier.
how to kill: some spearman, axeman or halberdier when near.

Long Swordsman
Pro:High firepower, longer attack range.
Con:low attack rate, easily be taken down by unit group.Not very strong but with pretty slow production. Hard to be massive.
How to kill:Halberdier, two or three will be better.

Mounted Spearman
Pro:Very fast and tough, higher attack rate and stable and useful when drive enemies back.
Con:very slow production,not so strong on attacking, usually grouping the enemy units and make nasty situation.
How to Kill:a group of spearman(about 5-6) or swordsman or few halberdier.

Mounted Halberdier
Pro:Fastest, strongest firepower among common units.
Con:very slow production, not so tough, lower attack rate, easily ignored enemy units, also grouping the enemy units and make nasty situation.
How to Kill:a group of spearman or few swordsman or halberdier.

S=Special unit:Not as strong as above but stronger than basic unit. normal production time.

Human Alliance:King's Guard(Swordsman)Type:V
Pro:Strongest swordsman with long attack range and tough armor. Stable to rush an no-one lane.

How to kill: few swordsman, or archer.

Undead:Flailer(Axeman)Type:V

Pro:Strongest power but not so slow, longest reaching melee, fast attack rate.usually one-shot killing so not so easy to group enemies. Ideal at dealing very strong units.
Con:Slowest Production, easily being ignored.
How to Kill: No effective killing method is found by me. Maybe grouped spearmen, swordsman or axeman with well-upgraded?
