Dear Puppetmaster
currently i am playing a vh vh campaign with france. i am on turn 22 and i have thrown out all the outlanders from the french provinces, conquered frankfurt with a crusade bla bla bla....
the problem is I checked the french troops from the custom battle and the building browser and I think their late armies are not satisfying. they do not have superior heavy infantry and their archers cannot lay stakes. in the late game when people start to use musketeers you are stuck with those archers because you do not have muskets. The heavy cavalry seems to be superior but not very much. I mean, statistically the lancers have like little advantage over knights hospitaller... I like commanding cavalry armies but the weaknesses of french will seem to haunt them in the late game as well for example the english archers will be much better, spanish will have better gunpowder units and venetians and germans will have better heavy infantry plus pavise crossbowmen... can you tell me, other than cavalry, where does the french arsenal excel? Are voulgiers worth using them or just a waste of money? because i will really linger on in order to play a good late game and i am not sure if playing with france in late game will be fun..
thanxs are in order
