I was wondering, what are some of the better unit combinations out there? I've recently been getting some great success with pikemen w/crossbows in my campaigns, and it seems to work with great effect. (what i do is have spearwall up, and have my crossbows literally stand in the spears. Then watch and laugh at the occasional cavalry unit attempts to charge my crossbows only to have most of the unit decimated upon impact. Also, this works quite well against infantry as well, since crossbows do quite serious damage to enemies, and the pikemen block for them, and actually take little or no damage during a charge, assuming thats because they aren't the intended target)
If anyone else has had any good combination strategies that seem to have worked, i'd be grateful if you would post them here (example: spearmen and sword unit alternately ranked in the same spot. *i haven't tried this yet*)
