I haven't touched the troops though, and if I try launching an army of mailed knights at the same number of polish nobles, I'll get beaten every single time. The reason for that, si that the mailed knights power lies in their charge, but cav charges have next to no effect against other cav. So, you're basically left with the backup weapon, and the nobles are stronger there, and they have a much higher armour save as well. And let's not forget that while the knight's charge is ineffective, while they charge they'll suffer from javlin fire, which will at least kill 10%, and usually more.
I hate those bastards. Even more than vards, although that wouldn't be the case if the byzantines had as many vards as the poles have nobles.
