How to beat
House of Lancasteras Holy Roman Empire
Matchup tips
Meinwerk Palace provides cheaper, faster technologies, so horsemen and spearmen will deal a lot more damage, which is very beneficial against any potential feudal age all-ins from House of Lancaster.
The villagers of House of Lancaster still have the short bow ability; in a fight against HRE's feudal spearmen, those short bows can make a big difference.
Yeoman archers are baseline a little bit faster, but still not as fast as HRE archers; however, they have one more tile of range.
Heavy Maces is already in. You prioritize it as HRE if your opponent has Lords.
The weird thing with these type of civs where they have a military landmark essentially — they don't need to invest wood. They get their harassers free. So I think opening of feudal should favor House of Lancaster.
The White Tower either on the wood or the gold would have secured you very very cozily even against the Burgrave.
Lords are slow, so the scouts should be pretty quick and having the deer under the Aachen Chapel does feel pretty good as far as food income goes.
I don't think you can fight off demilancers with spearman only.
You can always mix in a couple of spearmen with the men-at-arms, meaning your opponent can't just go for mass Demilancer or mass Hobelar.
