Hi,
Firstly i want to say how much i love this mod, the amount of detail is amazing and it's better than RTW in every way (ignoring the odd crash), so well done :) . Anyway, i'm doing campaigns with Casse and Saka Rauka at the moment and have a few questions.
Why do my chariot generals die so easily? I've learnt now to get my chariots out of melee as fast as possible, but even when they do get stuck, i would have expected my generals to be one of the last men to die. I use Generals loads with other factions (my Saka generals are my main melee force) but with Casse i'm reduced to using them as skirmishers and for the odd charge when i know the enemy will break straight away.
What do the Casse/Saka reforms actually do? I'm guessing i got access to new units but i don't know which...
What was a typical Casse army made up of? At the moment I'm using Belgae Swordsmen and Gaeliche supported by chariots, champions and axemen.
In RTW I used archers exclusively but they seem less effective in EB, so are slingers and skirmishers worth using or are all missile units less effective? or am I wrong about archers?
Could anyone reccomend a book on the celts of this period? (bearing in mind I'm a complete novice when it comes to history.)
Apologies if there are threads answering these already, but i couldn't find a search function.
Thanks in advance :)
