ALL Cavalry tactics

[Longasc]

You need a strategy for an all Cavalry Army?

Seriously, it is as easy as that.


Move some Cav units behind them, some to the flanks, hit CTRL-A and charge!

Then micromanage, pull them out, CHARGE again.

You do not need to worry about spearman at all, there is no counter to Cavalry. Missile Archers can charge, too, just alt-click if you are in the rear on another unit and have the opportunity.


ROME: TOTAL CHARGE

I still wonder why they made Cavalry so powerful in a game that deals primarily with ROME.

I think one can even do better than that:




Such "miracles" against full and well equipped armies are only possible with Cavalry Units. No Combo of Units can match that of Cavalry and Cav Archers.

Only weakness: Legionary Cohorts do better in dense city fighting, but once the door is taken or you sap several holes in the wall, Cavalry owns again.

Well, that depends on the units you were fighting.

LOL

Wait!! Why am I laughing? In reality, it's very sad...

Just imagine Julius Caeser with a full Equites and Merc HA cav army, conquering Gaul...

Or the Roman crushing the Greeks cities by using all cav armies against Hoplites and Phalangites...

No more Legionaires anymore...
