Well... Why weren't all of Asia and Africa in Rome? Constraints on the gameworld... as simple as that.Originally Posted by Werner
And what goes to the Huns... I don't think that people who were around in the 3-400s will fit too well.
The Pronoiai Allagion from MTW are sorely missing in my opinion. They were the lighter, faster version of heavy cavalry for the Byzantines (compared to the Kataphracts). I suppose the Byz Lancers have been thrust into that position. But they can't match knights like the Pronoiai could. Like Feudal Knights these heavy cavalry were my favourites of MTW.
Aside from them I miss a heavy spearman unit. A units that can match all but the best melee infantry in... well melee. Of course it should be more expensive that those. Be they knights or sergeants or men at arms, I care not. But a spearunit that are a viable meleeunit is something I miss, as merc and armoured spears are simply not strong enough for my tastes. I guess I miss the Armoured Spearmen of VI and Gothic Sergeants of vanilla. They were perfect for my tastes.
Skutatoi... Hmm, yeah I guess I would like them.
