    You don't see much poetry in this forum. Your style is refreshing, it has that haiku rythm going on.

    it is indeed direct but very refreshing!!! This said, it does not matter who you fight, a river crossing or a bridge is by far one of the best places to defend. Better would be some mountain fight, perched on top of a cliff with longbowmen raining arrows on the approaching enemy...

    The best way to beat them? Fabian strategy. I just love use it against everybody. Reminds the first crusade i got to jerusalem (i was egipt). I put several small armies in a row from mamluk archers in the way of a full stack. I lost 3 battles, and from the 3 battles i had minimal losses and destroyed several units from the crusaders. After they got to Jerusalem i reunited the small armies in a biger army and kicked their asses. Then retrained and waited fro the next stack. I beat 3 full stackes with less then 1 with this startegy, with lots of "close defeats"

    Yes, they do. And then their big brothers come. With cannons riding on elephants.

    That's the entire problem. One stack is fairly easy if you play it right, two is doable, and more are doable with the right terrain. The problem is that they get about 10 stacks full of high experience units and full/close to full commander/dread generals.

    And, as the others pointed out, then come the elephants with cannons on their backs...

    Genghis Khan came across the plains
    He brought us pain and misery
    He killed our tribes, he killed our creed
    He took our lands for his own need

    We fought him hard we fought him well
    Out on the plains we gave him hell
    But many came too much for azab
    Oh will we ever be set free?

    Riding through dustclouds and barren wastes
    Galloping hard on the plains
    Chasing the Ottomans back to their holes
    Fighting them at their own game
    Murder for freedom a stab in the back
    Women and children and cowards attack

    Run to the hills run for your lives
    Run to the hills run for your lives

    Masked man on the barren wastes
    Hunting and killing their kings
    Raping the women and wasting the men
    The only good saracens are tame
    Selling them silk and taking their gold
    Enslaving the young and destroying the old

    Run to the hills run for your lives

    I can't really write poems or anything in English so I'll just have to imitate someone else's text.

    Maybe we should ask the Iron Maiden to alter their original text
