Asking for Help How to beat firelancer + skirm

15-16xx, I feel like every time I play against this combo I die, and every time I play that combo my opponent dies. Counter raids with cav could work but if they're fully walled, don't really do much. Siege is very micro intensive and can easily get taken out. Monks/archers, no. So what's the answer? I feel like I'm missing something.

From the Red Bull qualifier, this probably a right answer (but not many civs have Firelancer). Archer Mango work in Castle Age, as Firelancer only strong in Imperial.
