Hi guilders:
I was here way way back in the days of STW :-)
may be some people still remeber, solypsis? Khan? nice tool btw.
was up

anyways, been playing both mtw for a while....
anyone notices that when you charge calvary at routing infantry.. its almost like knife through butter? when ever my calvary even touches a runaway poor little archers or spearman they fellow is just fall dead.
I guess the runaway "phalanx" where their routing army kills a bunch chasers (lol) in stw and mi is modified huh?

Yes anytroop running away gets slaughtered including your own. Most the time I noticed that they get captured most of the time.

Yes, my Alan mercenary cavalry captured over 200 enemy troops last night in one battle! Never seen one unit capture so many!

Yeah, it's like the usual line in Julius Caesar's book at the end of a battle: "And the cavalry pursued and killed a great number of them." http://www.totalwar.org/ubb/smile.gif
