I'm still playing the prologue campaign - but one thing I noticed was that in my first battle, I thought people died way too quick - but that was because I had very very high valor troops against 0 valor troops.

In later battles with all 0 valor troops the kill rate for infanty vs infantry head on seems about right.

I think the pilum throws seem to do about the right amount of damage - but it takes so long to throw them - if barbarians are charging your lines, your men can't physically throw the pilum before the barbarians pile into them - i think this should be changed since Romans did in fact use this as a tactic :)

Walking speed for infantry is about right - charging and routing is too fast, as is running. Cavalry charges by even the light militia cavalary and the inept roman cavalry seem far too devastating. Even too poor spearmen O.o

Archers do better than in MTW it seems to me, but I think it's about right,
