Saka edu: Feedback Appreciated

[gamegeek2]

That's somewhat anachronistic for this period isn't it? Cavalry only became OP in NOM's time frame. And there's the problem of eastern levies designed to spam defeat charging horses. Anyway, the OPness of cavalry was one of the reasons we redid the EDU, he who has the cavalry left at the end of the day used to always win.

Correct, that's why that's the system we're using in EBNOM, which was the heyday of the ultra-armoured cataphract, though not its peak (its peak came later in the Sassanid-Byzantine wars when both sides fielded thousands of them, albeit not as heavy as the ones in NOM).

About the spam problem, this will be addressed in EBNOM through a new morale system designed to make levies break easily to powerful charges if weakened slightly first. We will of course need to test this.

The solution is the new ammo system I suggested, along with having high HA numbers (I recommend 70 men for most light HA units).
