    You can reach Pontos victory condition with nothing more then 1 FM and 2 recruited generals u have from start.And such journey consist things like defeat 7200 gold chevroned galatians with 12 Galatian "Wild Men" Infantry inside,or beat the full stack of horse archers twice in row......
    I had a Parthian game on M/VH where I conquered 1/2 of the AS with nothing but 3 BGs and 4 HA so it is quite doable if you are patient enough.
    Fighting isn't about winning, it's about depriving your enemy of all options except to lose.

    I remember having to sic an entire half stack on a single Sarmatian bodyguard, and feeling lucky that I won.

    Thank God for Haploi.

    Yeah, the only one to partially fix that BG overuse is giving everyone else 2 HP (and triple the current lethality), so cavalry charges become gimp and they can actually slaughtered in melee

    and assuming that the trend of badass general's bodyguard will be back in Shogun2
