Yes
No
I just played a game with vega, and geuss what i found out that thracian light cav dont die to arrows. Im starting to wonder what DOES die to arrows? light cav no light infantry, there's no such thing in EB .
I suggest to everyone who wants to see a baalnced EDU to go and play RS then come and apply the stuff learned to EB.
Light units in RS accually are light and not 7 armour 3 sheild tanks.(im sorry for always comapring EB to RS, but im doing so ,to better the EB EDU .
I have yet to see a light cav in EB to die to arrows.
I know some of you will say " yah but archers are only meant to support not to win a battle " well, Archers right now arent even supporting.
All roman cavarly is not cheaper than 2500 mnai exept hispanic auxilia which cost 2300 i think, thracians cost 2700 mnai and there most be reason why they cost 2700 and i have courage to tell that they are supposed to be some kind of heavy mlee cav bcz they suck in charge, they have big shields and swords which supposed them to be less vulnerable to missiles and better in mlee than for example galic auxila, and you used sabean archers, i dont think that they are soo good to vanish my cav for a second anyway you killed 20 of 60 tracians then you admited defeat bcz my cohorts owned sabean infratry :DDD And to not spam other thread again, gallic auxilia have javelin atack 6 ? Is that mistake or something else?

By Thracian light cav do you mean a unit that has not been finished yet for 3.0? OMG REALLY? But dont expect them to be TOO much lighter for 3.0.
If you are talking about Roman auxiliary cavalry, remember those wear chain or scale armor, and some have big shields. Dont expect them to roll over and die.
And actually, the main reason for the shield strength increases was because light multipurpose cavalry simply got slaughtered by archers. They still get badly damaged by them but its no longer as bad. Remember storm we dont want people bring 4 archers/slingers in every single Roman or Hellenic army because that is ahistorical anyways. We want to see as many javelin skirmishers and light cavalry as archers.
/OT, infact you might want to move these posts to another thread later (at Ludens)

So im being forced to bring historical armies now?Remember storm we dont want people bring 4 archers/slingers in every single Roman or Hellenic army because that is ahistorical anyways.
EB is about you making up an army based on YOUR mind and fighting the enemy YOUR way. not ceasers way, not elxanders way, not hitlers way. not alexanders army not ceasers army not hitlers army. You can make the units as historical as possible but you cant go around changing stats so people play the way you want them to play.
He means that he doesn't want people to feel forced to bring missiles.
