Two questions

[Arkatreides]

I just stared a Baktria campaign and was wondering about the following:

1. What exactly does the Proskopoi Chremastiskai (Trade Route Scout Parties) building do?

2. How do you fight most effectively against the steppe armies (cavalry archers)?

Number one I can help you with. Check out this thread for the reply from Teleklos https://forums.totalwar.org/vb/showthread.php?t=81219

I've heard using foot archers with longer range works well against HA. Try the Indians their good.

Those eastern archers with spears are great too, better than just plain eastern archers, since they can have a little success against the standard horse archers when engaged.
