Help with Augustus campaign Roman army make up.

[Slaists]

LOL, quite a story there near Britain :)

As to army composition, I'm playing as Antony now. About 10 legionaries (with a mix-ed in single first cohort) + a varied mix of auxilia. In the East Front, armored Syrian archers seem to do the trick against hordes of horse skirmishers and horse archers (legionaries in testudo, to protect the archers; while the latter kill the horse skirmishers). Mix in a few Persian cavalry (picked up in vassal Armenia) + maybe an odd armored Asian war elephant unit. Actually, lately, I've been tempted to drop 2 legionary units and put 2 more archers in. Just too many horse skirmishers in the East.

In the West: I'm holding the line in the Adriatic. Raiding Octavian's coastal villages with a fleet (then abandoning) while the land is being held by local legionaries + Illyrian auxilia.
