I consider exploiting the charge - countercharge code to be a Minor Cheeze Move.
In a real fight the enemy unit would probably stop and not keep chasing a much faster unit, out of the safety of the woods and into and area where it is vulnerable.
So when I see that this code has been activated I usually hit the unit before withdrawing, and start hitting it with the flankers.
Saracen build those Turcos where they can get valor/morale bonuses, give them a weapons upgrade (and an armor upgrade if you plan on fighting in Europe or the Steppes) and use their speed as flankers. You'll be surprised how well a pumped up TurcoHorse will do when it hits a ByzInf in the rear.

Yea, i never used to build armor upgrades. But, lately ive been trying that approach. I didnt think I'd notice any difference, but units like ghazi seem to come back with more men after I use em, as opposed to no one coming back.
Ghazis have a high attack and low defense stats, and since armor adds 1 to defense these units are greatly improved by armor - but of course it adds to fatigue so I try to keep a few provinces armorer-free to produce desert troops.Originally Posted by Saracen_Warrior
