this is my first time not playing the romans so I am used to having quite effective groundforces.
I am now playing the Sassanids and the only way I can win is using my cavalry (they are very effective for sassanids). Due to the weakness of my groundforces I have had to change the tactics of seizing cities (I wait wait long to attack the city to reduce the amount of men per unit).
My units get truly decimated by the walls defences and on the wall if they meet a heavy cohorte, they are truly without a chance. Yesterday I only just managed to conquer the walls with 4 units in the towers versus 43 heavy cohortes.
Is this going to get any better? Will I receive later on in the game better units? How the hell am I ever going to get on the wall if they for instanve have 2 or 3 full units of cohortes on the wall, or a first cohort??
