Overpowered Chariots in Autoresolve?

[AntiochusIII]

I believe, though not 100% sure, its the cost that is being calculated in Auto-Resolve. So, to weaken them, make them (generals, after all, can't be 'recruited') cheaper. And, the Auto-Resolve isn't perfect. My belief is that, with the high cost of the Chariot, it's already deadly. Now, with the bonus of the "wall defense," they're absolutely deadly in Auto-Resolve. While in truth, they're weaker because they have to fight in the limited space of the city.

The celtic chariot overpowered in auto-resolve may be the explanation to why Brittons always end up crushing Gauls and Germans in all my games ?

Interesting, that would indeed explain a lot...

If it's a lone general, fighting it out isn't so bad as bum rushing the general ends it quickly. Besides, to improve autocalc odds, slip in a spy and then use lots of cheap units. That way, you don't lose much.

Yes, but that sadly doesn't help the Gauls, as they are usually getting a severe beating by the Britons. The Germans also get beat up a lot. That is odd since those two factions should be able to crush the Britons with little effort, if combined. Yet they get defeated.
In my latest game the Britons have even taken a settlement from the Spanish while they have driven the Gauls to the province just north of Patavium and the Germans get pushed around like children. Only my intervention by asking the Julii and Brutii to attack them and supporting the Gauls, Germans and Spanish with funds have stopped their offensive.

Now we know why that is possible perhaps.
