All gun armies

[Henry the Fifth]

Has anyone tried putting together an all firearm stack to see how powerfull it is against a mixed force?

[Csargo]

Probably won't work too well if the enemy army is cavalry heavy.

[sapi]

Unless you got a lucky hit on their general, they'd overwhelm you pretty quickly.

Pike and musket armies do work to an extent, apparently.

I have done this, I was Spain vs. the Aztecs, after a couple of vollys their whole army ran.

[HoreTore]

Well, sort of. 14 sudanese gunners, 5 royal mamelukes and the general is a pretty good stack. You'll need a hill though. Otherwise, you'll have a tremendously long line...

[pike master]

wont have to worry about heaby cav it you have reiters or camel gunners to counterattack with.

i once tried moor Sudanese gunners, hand gunners & camel gunners against the French just to test-drive my new gunpowder units. Sudanese up front skirmish on fire at will on close formation. hand gunners 2nd line fire at will on skirmish off (to absorb arrows & melee). camels at the back fire at will on skirmish off loose formation. camels fire 1st on closing enemy Sudanese 2nd & hand gunners if they get too close. handgunners are not so good in melee but they are tough w/ better armour. good for absorbing already chewed up groups of militia, knights, spearmen, and also cavalry. you have to micromange the handgunners & Sudanese though.
