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 reading a few things on this subreddit, but only recently joined. Some posts have spoken about how good the Khan’s Guard are.
I made a conscious effort to recruit more into my party. However, at the start of a battle there were barely any horse archers on my side. It’s annoying, as I’ve got so many and they would make a clear difference to the outcome of a battle, and yet only a handful show up.
I initially assumed that this was because I was in an army at the time, and so the ratio of troops on the battlefield was due to the numbers in the army. My assumption being that most lords had infantry in large quantities, and not many horse archers, hence why I had such a large volume of foot soldiers at the start of each battle.
I experimented by rearranging the army composition entirely: removing all foot archers and infantry.
The army was entirely cavalry now. Roughly 450 horsemen, and 450 horse archers (100 of which are Khan’s Guard). Yet the next battle I entered, I only had a handful of horse archers. Maybe something like 9 out of the 200 available units.
Can anyone explain this? What’s happening here?
