    Anyway, after seeing Skullheads army I would advise you a germanic army with scary units and those powerfull two handed swordsman and of course a lot of clubbers.

    PS: I cant bypass my proxy, but I do play multiplayer with friends in local are network and of course you cant predict what the enemy is doing, but if it looks like he wants to pin your phalangitai down I do what he doesnt expect me to do like moving the phalangitai to the flank and atack with my cavallery in the center.
    And having the better cavallery is the only thing that comes in handy every single battle. If you can prevent the enemy from pining them down in melee (Which is rather easy in EB, thanks to huge armour values and insanly fast riders like the thrakian podromoi). I mean having no star generals in mutliplayer makes a lot of units extremly easy to rout with cavallery. Anyway in reality everything can happen.^^ I once lost my flanking cavallery out of side and the next second they were in melee with 3 units of the thracian peltastai :(

    Well Skullhead was to believe otherwise. He tried to push 5 groups of clubmen into my TAB's. The TAB's still held their ground and after a few hits the clubbers suddenly routed.

    Germanic heroism abandoned him in the moment of need and he immediately quit the battle.

    Tsk tsk tsk, no true German heroes are they. They should hang themselves by the neck and if not, the priestesses will cut their throats and pour the blood into large cauldrons for taking omens then sink the carcass in a moor or lake.
