Rtw Tactics Guide

[Moros]

you speak french? Please say you're Belgian. ANother dutch is just what we need...sigh.

btw: was that stroy about aoks don't jump yours?

[The Stranger]

yeah it was, but enough off topic now. well im off to wathc BLACKBEARD

[Andres]

Yep, I'm Belgian.

We are the bravest of all Gauls, Mister Caesar said so himself (i.t.t. onze Nederlandse vrienden, die veeleer het predicaat "de gierigsten van alle Germanen" verdienen )

And the story about jumping oaks was mine idd. If one's English simply isn't good enough to compete with all those Shakespeareske stories, one is obliged to draw some attention to him with an absurd one...

[The Stranger]

damn... its destickied... of to ask why?

[Andres]

Ok, first time ever I use imageshack, hopefully, you'll see the picture...

This is the formation as described in my previous post about my Saxon army against the Vandals.

As I said, my bowmen decimated the Horse Archers before the rest of the Vandal army could reach my line of Levy Spears. At that time, most of the Horse Archers were history and my archers where firing their remaining missiles on the enemy infantry. The units that didn't rout, got peppered with pillae and flanked by the cavalry units. I recommend having your cavalry always "escort" your archers as long as the Horse Archers keep coming, just to keep the horse archers from coming too close to your lines.

I think in general, this tactic will work against any enemy army that contains lots of horse archers.

(Sorry for the drawing, as I said, I'm no artist)

Very annoying that I can't edit my posts as a Junior Member...

Forgot to mention that this tactic is perfect if you can't afford to lose many soldiers. I won 4 battles, each time against a full stack, and lost 25 men, most of them killed by my own archers

Key element is to find a piece of land on the campaign map with mountaineous terrain. And I'm not talking about a hill. I mean a serious mountain.

I think the Vandals were very foolish to attack me four times . They should have ignored my army and continued their raids on my land...

Thank god! (kisses the earth) Ah yes... Horum omnium Belgae fortisimi sunt.
Liked it tough it was rather absurd but then again quite entertaining.

Edit: I have an edit button, I have an edit button. Oh well just wait a bit and you'll have one you can enjoy all the time. Unless you spam a bit like our freind.

oh is THAT why I can't edit a post?

Now I'm a pretty bright guy, but have yet to figure out what correlation member status and editing posts has to do with one another.

30+ posts. 3+ weeks since registering. I'm still a Junior Member as well. Maybe at 10,000 posts I'll be able to edit

sorry...just a little tired of technicalities today after spending the last half hour trying to get imageshack to work (sheer garbage)

[The Stranger]

Hey GG watch your tongue, i have edit button now ;)

Andres thanx for posting, did you really meant 25 men, because that is not much to loose, on what settings do you play?

[Moros]

Hey I have the right to tease you once in a while. And you have the same right.






You may tease yourselve once in a while too.

[Andres]

Well, since it was my first campaign on BI, I played M/M, just to give it a try.

Yet another post to add to my account ...

[The Stranger]

naar de stembus, ik voer een campagne.

[Andres]

Since I participate myself in the Writing Contest, I feel it's inappropriate to vote myself.

Sorry Stranger...

[The Stranger]

ahahhaha np, but anyways, you should... ah never mind im not going to win from principles

[Moros]

Sorry Stranger...

A belgian with principles? You certainly aren't from Flanders are you?

[Andres]

Indeed I am, although one would doubt that, with all those French speaking people living here in Flemish-Brabant who refuse to learn Dutch.

Their souls shall burn in hell!

But I got this feeling nobody here is intrested in Belgian politics. Guess it's way too far off topic (or should I say "off forum"?) I guess.

Sorry

Won't do it again.

[The Stranger]

For the mods that read this, could someone please tell me why this is destickied, and maybe thy care to re-sticky it again. Thanx

[Bombasticus Maximus]

If this has been wrote yet or not who knows.

The best way to suvrive with dacia is head into asia minor or germany so you have something fall back on when the romans come.

[Orb]

Bombasticus, where are you for 12th century glory?

[Bombasticus Maximus]
