I have been testing quite a bit Naute vs Legionaries as I want to make a Infantry playthrough with Empire only units and I noticed Legionaries are just ass now. Naute even with worse armor just outperform and that even in battles where they are outnumbered and/or fight mixed armies against t5/t4 with archers and cav. Really was surprised by how good the Naute are compared to Legionaries or other infantry from other factions. submitted by /u/KolkanCova [link] [comments]
Sorry if I’m Breaking any rules posting this story about L’aigle. Couldn’t tell from the rules if it was okay or not.
Some quick backstory: Started playing the L’aigle mod recently. Manager to get a 135-man-army composed of only British grenadiers. I’m attacking a dutch general and during the first battle, he decides to charge together with his cavalry. He goes down and his troops retreat. We’re fighting in the forest, so I can’t see very far.
The second battle starts off well: anticipate the cavalry charge by forming a square and opening fire just before impact. Manage to whipe out most of their cavalry and I suddenly see their infantry run away. Hurray! Easy win. Decide to bayonet charge them as they retreat. Suddenly the forrest opens up and they’ve formed a new line and start picking off my scrabled forces who haven’t reloaded their guns. Now I have to retreat back!
All went well, but I was surprised by the cheeky tactic. Learned my lesson I guess; don’t get cocky, as you’ll lose good men
