Strategum

Playing as Armenia and Pontus waited until I was busy elsewhere and struck. I threw a three unit of LCA against them and decomated their foot army. Their second army was hitting my capitol. I sent my main army to fight them head on and set my army of three LCA in position behind them. After I defeated them they retreated towards home and close to my smaller army. My smaller army had enough movement left to hit them and they lost 130 men to my zero. I have set several small armies of LCA at strategic points. Not only can they hit an army on the way in. But when they lose I hit them again on the way out.

What are LCA? Light Cavalry Archers?

If so - yes, I love using Cav Skirmishers to screen oncoming enemy armies and make hit and run attacks to weaken their heavy units.
