![]() It ether pukes out crossbow militia and overwhelms your ranged compartment or sends out the pavise variant. Which wouldn't be a problem if it weren't for the HRE. now shoot asshole", its decent in melee and can be used as such but in ranged? Yeah no. The former is pretty bad getting murdered by archers and even some crossbow militia and the later is more along the lines of "here taes this bow. They only have 2 decent ranged units: normal crossbows and norse archers. Their heavy infantry can do some heavy damage, with halberdiers (with a weird name), swordstaff militia and huscarls but imo they have one crippling weakness: ranged. grindy version of the Imperial Knight the War Priest as well as Chivalric Knights and Mounted Crossbows but good chunks of the cav is either from special buildings or. But that is subjectiv.ĭenmark: This is an interesting case. I just remember them not being all that fun. The man threat for you are usually the turks which, iirc, have amazing anti cav so the early game can be pretty painful. well the remaining parts are rather small and can be divided into cannon fodder and very good. They also have 2 good mounter archer units so keep that in mind. Mid tier: Good infantry is nice and all but it won't help you if your direct opponent can field way better cavalry and better ranged units.īyzantine: Their cav roster is about the same in size as Scotlands in the heavy department BUT they bring a feudal-equivalent and a AP cav unit. Also scottish nobles but again: 2handed so can be iffy. Scotland: Scotland is pretty screwed in terms of cav with their best being feudal knights and having no real alternative BUT they can field heavy pikes, as well as a scottish counterpart to the swordsmen. Lots and LOTS of longbows.Īlso a top tier. But still you have at the very least 3 normal-sized good units (Feudal, Swordsmen and English Foot Knights). ![]() Which for the most part are good in theory but can substain horrible loses in melee due to being rather slow. They have armoured swordsmen which are a middle between Feudal and Chivalric Knights but also have lots of 2handed units. Their light cav (the one unit that they have) is pretty bad too iirc but then again so are most. But they have no ranged cav so that can be a massive downside if you like those. And 1 more heavy cav unit (Demi-Lancers). Still one of the top dogs as a faction imo.Įngland: Along with Scotland the best starting position in the game thanks to the AI usually being too stupid to land on your shores. Which are avaible earlier, easier to come by AND cheaper. In Kingdom they are slightly better but still are usually (for me) butchered by FEUDAL knights. You might have noticed that I didn't mention the Gothic Knights and that is part of the false advertising: They are pretty shit in vanilla. They even have up to 2 missile cav units, Crossbowmen and Reiters, which combined with the Pavise Crossbows can seriously diminish approaching enemies. Cavalry has Imperial Knights, Infantry has Forlorn Hope and the dismounted counter part for the jus mentioned knights. The roster is pretty robust all around with having decent units in every category. But at least you are big enough to fall back and regroup. The former can lead to a rough early game since sometimes the AI is pretty bloodthirsty and declares war on you. HRE: The HRE has imo only 2 weaknesses, their position and false advertising. MID: Scotland, Byzantine, Denmark, Hungary, Milan, Venedig, Mid, Novgorod, Turks and Egypt TOP: HRE, England, Sicily, France and Spain ![]() No mercenaries OR special units (templars etc) Think we missed one?
