The Cardinal Rules of War

[guineawolf]

i always send my cavalry to take out chariots....

Just don't go through it's front,attack those chariot's back when they charge into your infantry,your cavalry will only get heavy casualties when they fight face to face with chariots.Dun't fight with heavy chariots and scyth chariots,dun fight with them with your heavy cavalry,fight them only with your light cavalry,coz the scyth blade beside their wheels will cut anything down very easily(it is the scyth blade bring you death!),even the armored elephant....

i use cavalry base army to against Britons and egyptian those chariots base factions(just use the cheapest cavalry is oredi enough even the cavalry auxilia,mostly 1 cavalry can take out 2 chariots),and it works perfectly!
