Byzantines in Mail Hall

http://www.totalwar.org/cgi-bin....antines (http://www.totalwar.org/cgi-bin/forum/ikonboard.cgi?act=ST;f=7;t=12389;hl=byzantines)

I 've been playing enough with the Byzs
First movement is towards Croatia and Serbia where the gold is... eitherwise towards Russia (difficult but...who knows), dont mind the Turks(for start)
My favorite units are Byzantine infantry, Varangian Guards and of course Kats. I avoid the byzantine cavalary.

Jacque Schtrapp thank you, you can delete this topic after my last answer(for now http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cgi/emoticons/biggrin.gif ):

In my opinion Byzantine cavalary is useful to those who use tactics(eg hit&run) with missile cavalary. I usually dont use these tactics so i find byz cav a little useless(?) as their charge with treir little swords is not efective (this is from my experience)

[Jacque Schtrapp]

Copied that one over for you too. It usually does not take this long for Junior Patrons to get promoted. I think our administrator, Tosa, must be busy with is real life. I'm sure he'll get this taken care of as soon as he returns and you'll be free to post in the Main Hall. If you need anything else posted drop it here and we'll fire it off to the appropriate place for you

Biz cav. charging.....what? spears, heavy cav., light cav.? What did they charge?

Ranged units charging highly defensive foes is as smart as sending VGs to chase mongol HAs.

charging even light sword units I mean, of course not spears http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cgi/emoticons/biggrin.gif (that is what i noticed and not a rule)
