    Probably a very common thing, but in 0.81 I managed to get my Makedonian General unit of 25 people to cause around 350 Pontic casualties, while losing 4 men. (Of course, all my army fought and engaged enemy units while my general charged around. But I think that was the most impressive onslaught I ever achieved with a single unit).

    465 Greeks (and not a single Spartan!) under Chremonides versus Antigonos's 3922 Makedonian barbarians. The Makedonians were left with 91 men, the victorious Greeks with 333 war heroes. Antigonos and Chremonides both perished in the battle, the former charging through boiling oil and the latter fighting on the walls of Athens.


    Granted, the AI did do a good bit of the traditional , which killed a good lot their troops, but once I came back from watching South Park they had charged and met their deaths in oil and a relentless hoplite shieldwall (which had been pushed back from the gates across a street during the battle) or on the walls fighting Chremonides.

    Almost same thing =) 300 KH (under oldbones Chremonides) vs 2400 Mak (3 generals included) = 150 KH
    I'm ain't a military genius, all credits go to one unit of classic Hoplitai and one unit of Hoplitae Haploi defending the gates
    AI was successfully pushing me guys from the gates, fortunately me was defending Athens, where the central avenue goes exactly strait from the gates to the central square, that's why me guys were pushed in the corridor without being surrounded and did their worst

    KH're overpowered as long as they are guided by me

    Currently on my parthian compaign, my kill ratio is probably around 1000 to 1 often i kill almost a thousand without a single loss

    Is it normal to have about 12 (aprox) settlements with Parthia by 262 BC?

    My most devastating victory during my current campaign was just today, fighting as Sweboz against an equal army of Getai. I had 8 casualties, they had 1750.

    "Something can be done, by careful analysis, to sort out truth from propaganda and legend. But this is where the real difficulties begin, since each student inevitably selects, constitutes criteria, according to his own unconscious assumptions, social, ethical or political. Moral conditioning, in the widest sense, plays a far greater part in the matter than most people- especially the historians themselves-ever realize."
