Make a elite cataphract force of 50 than charge them to their horse division. Elite cataphracts are superior in all ways. Then, charge the horses on to the pikeman and archers then charge the soldiers and arrows. Dont forget that these has to be mostly legionaries. I hope my tips help. submitted by /u/Visible_Tax7920 [link] [comments]
This is my first game in Floris.
I'm trying to go with a full Rhodok army (about 40% Infantry/40% crossbow with my companions and I as the cavalry) because I've just basically used Swadian Knight armies before and I want to try something different.
So far I'm up to about ~70 army size with a few level 5 troops and mostly level 3s and 4s (and a bunch of recruits I constantly have to gather). My problem is that my guys seem to die extremely easily. Even facing mountain or forest bandits that are like half my size I still end up taking a ton of casualties unless I personally get in their face and basically carry the battle.
Is there some magic point at like troop level 6 or 7 when Rhodok suddenly become strong? I've always heard they're awesome. My crosbowmen can't seem to hit the broadside of a barn. I form them up in ranks to wait for the enemy charge and even with like 30 seconds of firing like maybe one or two enemies die and then they typically just do dopey shit like hit my infantry while they're trying to defend them.
I've been trying to use different tactics and organize my troops and even flank with my calvary, but nothing seems to work. Any tips?
