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]
I've been playing MnB on and off for a very long time now. Normally, I create my character, and specialize in mounted archery with a saber and shield. It's pretty good: get a Courser and shoot the enemy while circling them, and once you run out of arrows, just start slashing drive-by style. The saber can be replaced with a Bastard Sword (or any 1h/2h sword or mace, really), making it even better, because its 2h swing is stronger and compensates for when the shield gets destroyed. As to other things, I usually am an honourable character, never attacking villages or peasants, chasing bandits, and refusing "blood money". But I've noticed that it's also a bit tedious to stick to this kind of playstyle. Not because it makes progress a bit slow, but because the playstyle itself can get tiresome. I'm not sure how to put it more clearly.
Sometimes, when I don't feel like "roleplaying", I just create a randomized character, get a two-handed weapon (sword, hafted blade, or axe or badiche), and start chopping away at everyone I encounter, no strategy or anything. I may, or may not use a horse, but when I do, I also use a spear or lance (whichever comes first, using the speak can be tricky). Basically, I'm making my character into some kind of glass mobile-cannon, if that makes any sense: moving quickly, hitting hard, but sacrificing the protection of heavier armours. And it's just so much more fun! Dive head-first into a group of enemies and swing your way to victory!
Anyone else feel like it?
