The Indian longbowmen? I haven't used them yet, but according to the unit-viewer they have a very small quiver and only moderate range and attack. 16 arrows instead of 35 for Kretans... doesn't sound very useful to me. Even those nasty swords they have can't make up for that, can it?

Thraikioi Rhomphaiaphoroi. As long as I didn't run into any substantial HA army, I wouldn't have a care in the world as far as EB is concerned.

oh yes they can, everytime the enemy goes for them and is all like "BWAHAHA I HAS GOT UR ARCHERZ IN MEEELII!!!!111" they get out their ... uhm... swords and kill off the unsuspicious foe :D

I once had an army 50/50 Tracian Elite infantry and Tracian Prodromoi. did not prove too efficient an army but at least was a lot of fun running them into the back of the Seleucid Host.
