I am having some trouble dealing with caetrati in my current campaign.

My problem in a nutshell is their ap melee attack rips apart anything heavy I throw at them (even my elites like the mask wearers or the diodataskeli) and I cant outflank and charge them as the armies im facing are literally full stack caetrati so the comp just sends a unit of them at each one of my units who then get murderised :).

And my light infantry isnt very good so they wont work...


So people who have done a spanish (cant remember the proper name lol) campaign how did you deal with these armies?

As I am quite stuck about it...

The only COA I can think of is raising a few armies completely consisting of diodataskeli and spamming the caetrati armies with them...

But tha'll take a while lol (About 45 game years per army :()


I have had some limited success by hiding my cavalry and then waiting till my infantry is engaged and then charging but I cant chase each unit and the regroupers kill my cavalry then finish my infantry.
