Hey Guys,
A topic similar to this appeared in the Main Hall, but we have our own Forum now.
Personally, I feel that the Byzantines have an unfair costing advantage against the other factions.
What it costs the enemy to field an army with quality spearmen, Order Footknights etc..., the Byzantine player has enough extra cash to max out the valour on his infantry and still have florins left over to give valour bonuses and weapons and armour upgrades to missle & cav troops.
I have honestly never lost a game while defending with Byzantium.
I have beaten 2 armies with 1 Byzantine army twice (that's once after my ally dropped at the start and we said, hey let's play for fun anyway, and once when my ally was routed).
I'm not that good. I have no delusions of being an MP ace. I play with them because I like to win, but get fed up and use different factions to try and make things more challenging.
What do the rest of you think? Are some of the Byzantine troops a little too much on the Cheap side?
