Don't you just hate it when somebody uses too many smilies

(off topic) Sorry

...I'm not sure it's supposed to work like that...

(on topic) I meant flanking

They are faster than skirmishers

I think they are I full charge but not while walking

leaping over spear points

That is not historically accurate

P.S: Can somebody find that tread that talks about leaping over spear points

Any siege equipment for me - sieges are my thing really - this game revolves around them as far as I'm concerned - avoiding field battles and going for the cities is pretty much my strategy. So siege towers (even the silly overpowered ones), onagers - great in field battles too, the lowly battering ram is useful... the ultimate siege device (especially for wooden walled settlements) is the elephant - smashes open gates, knocks down walls, and in narrow streets? Nasty, especially with cavalry coming down the other way.

I love cataphracts, because they look like robots!!! But i like spartans even more, because they are unstoppably good!!

Egyptian bowmen, 1.5x the unit size of normal archers.

I like Wardogs..... lots and lots of Wardogs. Upgraded gold Wardogs are even better. The tactic I use is to use one unit of Wardogs in a straight frontal assault and then use another set on the flank. Even heavly armoured units don't like it too much.

Haven't tried it against elephants yet. Hmmmmm...

That should be interesting.
