    Default Best kill count for a single unit

    What's yours? I think this is the best one of my units ever did: http://cloud-2.steampowered.com/ugc/...F40EB55C2E8FA/

    It was basically a horde of these northern African super cheap spearmen against a single unit of pikes in a tight road lol.

    I think my best is like 500 or so, my battles arent large enough to get more than that for a unit.

    Yeah, I think my best is probably in the same range; 400-500ish. Probably cav or siege arty.

    I do remember one battle where I had a Roman velite unit rack up well over 400, and their nearby velite buddies were in the 300-400 range. These low-end javelin guys wiped out an entire army almost on their own. I thought that was pretty noteworthy. It was a minor settlement battle though, where even now the AI seems content to just sit and allow themselves to be massacred by missile fire. No way they could have done this in open-field...or in a proper siege either, for that matter.

    If you pile up pikemen in the opening of a wall or gate it gets out of hand quick. It's pretty typical to see 500-900 kills from 1 unit. I don't remember the exact number but the highest I've seen was a little over 1k by some Spartan Pikemen.

    1300~ It was scythed chariots and my buddy was controlling them. He just tore the enemy archers and light inf to shreds. Battle had about 2 full stacks on both sides and if i remember correctly the casualties on both sides made up a total of about 6000 men

    A bit more above 800 - citizen Cav versus skirmishes fresh off the enemy navy.
    The art of war, then, is governed by five constant
    factors, to be taken into account in one's deliberations,
    when seeking to determine the conditions obtaining in the field.

    These are: (1) The Moral Law; (2) Heaven; (3) Earth;
    (4) The Commander; (5) Method and discipline.
