    For the entire cavalry of a consular army (taking it to be 1:10 on Huge unit size). As above, a lot of the time you could take the younger FM's bodyguard to be the Roman cavalry, and thus one or at most two proper units for the allied part of it.
    It began on seven hills - an EB 1.1 Romani AAR with historical house-rules (now ceased)
    Heirs to Lysimachos - an EB 1.1 Epeiros-as-Pergamon AAR with semi-historical houserules (now ceased)

    oh now I see heheh


    well then I guess you have a point there...but well personally I would do it cause I dont want to mess up more whit my files , and well I dont know...I'm just too lazy to be switching things every now and then...


    and well I play with large size so it would be 15 equites instead of 50 , wich is well pretty much nothing ,15 arent even capable of cleaning the map of reuters


    and offtopic

    In fact I'm so lazy that I dont think I'll switch files each time I want to have a new client ruler... so I'm not really sure what am I going to do now...


    1)start another campaing...I'm just in 256 bc or something and around 6-7 hrs of game

    2)Forget about Client rulers

    sugestions?

    the minimum amount of units to my knowlege is 12 on regular size. so that's as small as possible.

    tired of ridiculous trouble with walking animations? then you need my brand newmotion capture for the common man!
