Cataphracts are invincible? That's news to me. I usually destroy one of their units with two skirmisher cavalry units...

Not versus other player. You're not usually going to lose to the AI unless it outnumbers you 3 to 1 and has naked guys.

I really don't want to know what you're getting at.

All I was saying is that the AI sucks and it takes ridiculous odds for them to win.

**mountaingoat** · 09-26-2009, 05:10

they usually need like OVER 9000!1 troops to balance it out .

I remember fighting the Muslims in Spain in MTW. The largest battle I fought in was about 3K vs 12K.

I tried in a Custom battle to use Cantabrian Calvary on the rear of a unit of Pzeheteroi, I think they need an armor piercing ability. One volley usually kills none or a few units

let me guess, you had your rear handed to you, as you almost did in this battle?

as to the AI: yeah it does suck. it either has to outnumber you big time (and even then), has elites to you militia, or the human is a total joke of a commander. pick your choice
