What kind of general are you?

[DS_Legionary]

I'm a defensive general. While I am capable at offense I really shine on the defensive. I can take a rather small army and completely lay waste to almost anything out there, except elephants. I have a bit of trouble with those behemoths, but usually I can take em down and out of the equation. I really like to use Hoplites/Phalanx now that the shift right bug is fixed in 1.2. They are the best for defending and taking cities.

At the start of the game I usually have 50% Inf 25% cav 25% archers which will beat anything the AI can do. But then once the empire starts to grow I get really bored planning armies so I end up with random bunches of troops all the time, it makes the game a bit more interesting for having different types of army in every battle but can be a nightmare because I end up assaulting citys and then realising I only have one unit of infantry

Once you've played for a bit against the AI you know you can beat them with a balanced army so why not make some crazy armies in campaigns and see what happens?
