Help With Hayasdan

[NickTheGreek]

Hi guys. I'm really tempted at the moment by a Hayasdan campaign but I'd be unsure about the opening moves. Can anyone give me a hand with this?

Get a ceasefire from the Sauros. Disband your cavalry. Combine all your FMs into one army and attack the two cities close by. Try to be a little bit weaker than the garrison so they will sally the first turn. Be prepared to fight a defensive war against the AS sooner rather than later. Native Phalanxes, archers and bridges.

Take Kotais first, then take Trapezous or Kabalaka with the remaining forces, be sure to train some extras because you will need them to take both towns.
