Citation: | Playing 18 light horses for 4 HC bow elite ? You're a fearless man, you know ? |
It was determined by what I have painted. Also, in DBA (this is a double DBA army) light horse can be quite dangerous. I intend to try this again, perhaps with 6 or 8 heavy cavalry and the rest light horse. |

Well, Light horse can be dangerous too, but I think you took too many of them indeed. But then , you had what you had. Next time, try some heavy bow cavalry. _________________ C'est un Germain Breton, il faut pas le secouer trop fort, meme s'il le demande.

I have designed a Turcoman army with 5 HC bow elite plus 18 LH bow elite, but I haven't been brave enough to use it yet! |

I have played with 18 javelimen , so 18 Lh seem to be a piece of cake. _________________ "Quand on a pas de technique, faut y aller à la zob"

I think a wing with 10 LH with bow is really interesting...Or with JLS.... But you need something more powerful to win.
HC elite with bow are the "Rolls Royce" of the game. If they have impact too they are wonderfull....
An HC elite with bow could fight nearly everything. They can outmanoeuver elephants, beat all medium foots and sustain even the charge of some heavy foot. Their only natural nemesis are the Impact cavalry (Knigth are unable to catch them if horse archer player do what he have to do)
But HC elite army aren't easy to play...Or to compose... |

I think that mounted Impetuous troops aren't the best troops of the game... They are difficult to play and sometime doomed in front of elephant ou heavy infantery... Impact mounted are clearly better in this case. But Impetuous foots are very powerfull. |

I think (but I'm sometimes a bit crazy), we can do something with impetuous mounted. I have such a project too _________________ C'est un Germain Breton, il faut pas le secouer trop fort, meme s'il le demande.

In my first games i avoided impetous troops....wanted to get familiar with the ground rules first....with impetous i think its urgent to be good at knowing the rules....breaking off and so on... |

I play mounted impetuous with my Norman army ! They are All elite and it's à very great pleasure to play...Theo are string, solide and furious. With a brillant general, you CAN do what you want... And remember, Theo are not impetuous on heavy infantry !
