Fucking Anglo-Saxons, how do they work? I am getting raped against the Normans here because they consist of 60% cavalry and I have not a single unit that can win contact. For some reason this encounter (nonwithstanding the shitty terrain) is busting my balls. Just last week I won with Egyptians against Hittites while being outnumbered 2:1.Also, at which difficulty is the AI starting to cheat?Also also, general TBS thread, I guess.
Are these games really good and where should I begin
>>2515080They're good if you like turn based tactics, the mechanics are easy to learn but hard to master.FoGII and Medieval are mechanically virtually identical, so go with whichever period you prefer and grab the DLC's if you enjoy it.
>>2515125You can also get all de DLC for free with creamapi on windows or headcrab patch on linux>>2515057Force them in disadvantageous terrain, read De re Militari from Publius Vegetius Renatus and maybe Strategikon
>>2515057use terrain, you're playing against ai how are struggling are you dumb? it doesn't matter what advantage you give them if they just funnel into wherever you want to fight like the ai does
>>2515057Oh, I'm actually playing this now, I'll look later, doing England vs France, I'm still learning.
use terrain like others said, and also keep reserves in back ready to flank their cav when they push forward/chase
