I'm not sure why there are competition floating around beside having a laugh, or players running around claiming they're better than another if this bug is alive. The bug has been mention many times before since day one but it has not been fix. So I think it worth mention over and over again until CA wake up and fix it, as it completely ruin any game balance. If there's any to begin with.
The bug I was referring to is the cav charge bug that players see. That is, a unit of inferior stats decimates a unit of higher stats in a charge.
Here's some clips of superior cav loosing in a charge
My general with both inspire and banzai stats: attack: 33, defense: 14, charge: 43, amour: 7
vs
Vanilla yari cav stats: attack: attack: 5, defense 1, charge: 25, bonus vs cav: 15, amour: 4
Result: general lost 7, vanilla cav lost 2
Please, someone from CA explain to me how did that happens?
Perhaps a clearer example: vetted Great Guard vs vanilla Great Guard
His Vetted Great Guard stats: attack: 27, defense: 11, charge: 45, bonus vs cav: 15, amour: 7
vs
My vanilla Greate Guard stats: attack: 15, defense: 5, charge: 35, bonus vs cav: 15, amour: 7
Result: one of his GG lost 10, i lost 1; another of his vetted GG lost 9, i lost 5. At the end both of our GGs routed but his routed first after loosing the engagement
Once again, would someone from CA explain to me what the hell just happens?
Still not convince? Plz enjoy this next video where my vanilla yari cav killed his vanilla GG
Stats: plz tell CA to look up the stats for themselves
Result: my vanilla yari cav lost 1 while his vanilla GG lost 17
All of these cav charge properly from a long distance as you can see their charging animation is activated. Although sometimes, a unit in proper charge will loose to a cav that is stationary. Watch pointman's video, skip to 5:50

This is sincerely a joke at best as no one in their right mind would publish this and charge people for it, right? I'm not sure whether beta tester don't see this (they probably did), or what dev are doing in their paid time to not fix it? Unfortunately this isn't random or occasional, but rather on an individual player versus player basis; player A will always get the bug advantage over player B no matter how, when or where you play. You can host a 1v1 classic with your friends or avatar mode with no vets&retainers; both of you each bring 1 yari cav and 1 GG; both each charge your yari against his GG and your GG charge against his yari; one of you will loose the charge on both engagement. Repeat this at different time, date and seasons. On the other hand, no matter how random it is, how is it possible for a charged cav to loose men to a stationary cav while stationary lost 1-2? It makes no sense for me, not for a game.
I'm trying my best to stay civil, but it hard not to buy box of this game, get a ticket to travel to their HQ and chuck one at each of their melon
