    Default Pahlava Lovers what is your choice?

    here is my early Field army (that means you use only for field battles not sieges):

    All FMs

    and the rest are


    for sieges I hire infantry mercenaries to siege machines and surround the city with Shivatirs.

    late field army that means after I get 20 -30 cities:

    at least 1 FMs:

    4 shivatirs:

    4 Daha Uazdaettae (Dahae Noble Cavalry)

    4 Zradha Shivatir (Parthian Armoured Horse-Archers)

    4 Pantodapoi Phalangitai (Hellenic Native Phalanx)

    1(never more than 1) Elephantes Indikoi (Indian Elephants) I do not use them in field battles just to ram wooden walls.


    I do not use Lance cataphracts. I prefer Archer / lance system for them.
    I keep 2 units of Grivpanvar (Parthian Late Armored Elite Cataphracts) for the royal Ashkanian Army. I established a law that only an Ashkanig can have Grivpandars.


    What you you think?
    For example do you use foot archers for field armies?
    I leave them for garrison duty.
    Metropolis (huge city) 4 foot archers 4 native phalanx.
    Large city 3 FA 3 NP
    City 2 FA 2 NP
    towns 1 FA 1 NP

    and of course I will increase the garrisons of frontier towns.
