Actually light infantry is better than heavy infantry, when you don't have a landmark that you have to protect. This leads to RTW's engine problems - the number of javelins, the speed of the units, and so much more...

When you leave in a tribal system you don't need to win the battles. You need to win the war, and that is not hard, when you can run around your opponent. btw, i have won the grand campaign with the numidians a few times - if you know what to do, the javeliners and their great cavalry are killers. But yeah, it is hard, when you have to fight something as strong as the macedonians or the romans. But.. .well that is why it is VH campaign.

I see your point, but i don't get why screw with the "H" in HRTW ;)

BTW: in the antiquity "king" just means "ruler", and "Kingdom" - "Country ruled by one-man". There was only one way to call them rulers then. "Imperator" (known as Emperor in modern days) is just a commander (if i recall correctly not even the supreme commander). So, yeah, they are kongdom. But don't forget, the Odrissy Kingdom, that didn't had even one real town in it, until the celts got here. ;)

I don't know why i discuss this actually. My opinion is clear - i see no need of twisting the history and giving the numideans more units than they had in vanilla. :)
