Exactly...that's why I never do autocalc against even if I have 20 units against 1 unit of chariots. In fact, one autocalc battle went against me in almost that exact scenario.

Skirmishers could be useless against chariots, but you could just use some different units, light cavalry is the best to catch them.
I've never had good experiences when using cavalry of any kind against them - not saying you're wrong or anything. Do you use the swarm and trap method with the cavalry?

The good thing about attacking Egypt is, at least in my experience, when they're on the defense they won't come and attack you with their chariots. I use that to my advantage with ranged troops. That's why I usually choose to attack them rather than wait for them to attack.
