Oh Lordy, in what world are the Timurids easy to wipe out? I've had full-stack armies full of cavalry, spearmen, archers, and bombards; reinforced with another full-stack of about the same complement that still get MASSACRED by a couple reinforced Timurid armies altogether comprising about 1/3 of my total army, all because they had a couple units of elephants/elephant artillery and some heavy horse archers. Longbowmen don't seem to do ANYTHING to elephants, and none of my spearmen last more than a couple seconds against them.
I have... resorted to "auto_win defender" more than a couple times vs them. (Kinda broke down and started using that more after initially using it to counter the elephant CTD bug, and siege lag bug...)
That and extensive assassin use are the only thing keeping them under control right now, haha.
