Guys....VH/M IS A CAKE WALK!!!!!!! Seriously, and I mean no disrespect for the newer players. Remember fellas this AIN'T vanilla, so you gotta get creative with battle tactics and even with where you move your armies in the map.

Another thing, you gotta understand that the AI will almost always attack you once the 2 of you share borders. Its just going to happen, dumb AI and its a non-moddable thing..... So you gotta have your cities ready to pump out troops at a moments notice, and have some forts in key places to slow down the AI's future attack. Again... get creative...

Also, I keep reading threads of people complaining that AI in VH sends full stack, after full stack, after full stack.... but they never even think about reasing a couple of armies and start plundering the AI's cities, and then give some of those cities to thier allies to act as buffer. Again... get creative..


Come on guys its not hard at all.
the point is not too hard but boring....you destroy elite stack after elite stack, ok you conquer and pillage the city´s, you happy...and face next turn 1-2 Merc only stacks with 1 General and 19 Merc Units you beat them (after hours of fighting and mayby a ctd^^) ...and see as soon as ai has its citys back once more endless stacks, this time leavies+merc´s....yea really a fun gg

i have played earlier VH/M too but now M/M ....the ai is as dumb at M/M as in VH/M but accept peace offers often and you face no more waves of full stacks so its more realistic.
