    Egypt is absolutely incredible. They are the only faction that can trade by sea on the east and west. The kingdoms to the south pose no threat, and the land there has gold. The variety of units for the general's body guard is just insane too. Any unit weaknesses are easily handled with mercenaries.

    I think you’re really underselling Bactria, amazing selection of cavalry and missile and while slightly lacking in infantry, they’re by no means weak in that department. They’re so hard to beat in a land battle if you use them right, I think people that say they’re bad just don’t necessarily know how best to use them cuz they’re a very unique faction, they don’t play as a typical Hellenistic or eastern faction. They have strong melee and shock cav and pretty good archer cav, a wide selection of archers and javelinmen, royal guard hoplites kinda suck but thorax swords and scale hoplites hold their own

      I think both of the Iberian tribes (Arevaci and Lusitani) are actually really fucking good but you need a good player to do well with them because of their big vulnerabilities. Once they get into the fight though they kick ass.
      They’re similar to the Odrysian Kingdom in a way but less risky imo. All have similar playstyles with Arevaci being the “safest”, Lusitani being the riskier but not riskiEST, and Odrysians having the biggest potential for absolute ass kicking but also being incredibly risky

    I think you're underselling the importance of having melee-capable ranged units. It's not often, but I have turned the tide of major battles by having my ammoless archers charge into the fray. I mean, imagine if when your archers were done they turned into melee infantry? Also in my experience playing with the smallest unit sizes on my laptop sometimes just a few of the enemy cavalrymen can manage to push their way through my line past the rest of their unit and melee capable archers can make the difference between your archers stopping for just a few seconds or your archers stopping long enough for the entire enemy infantry force to arrive at the front unscathed

    Macedon straight up wins against seleucids and the other successors. Best pikes(highest attack), best shock cav (slow cataphracts < fast companion cav), elephants only good against rome or sword heavy infantry factions + easly countered by flaming arrows. The only thing you can do against macedon is skirmishers since macedon pikes has the worst armor 70 I think, while silver shields have 100! But since you have the best shock cav you can just run down ranged units ez after beating the enemy cav. You finish the battle with the good old hammer and anvil.

    • @FightMeTotalWar
      @FightMeTotalWar  2 роки тому +8

    Feel like I would have placed Iceni much higher but that's my personal bias I think. I just feel like their chariots alone just put them above and in a good position especially when they start off on the map dealing with just barb factions that literally can not deal with chariots at all
    Edit: realized only halfway through this tier list was specific to multi-player battles which I know nothing about and don't partake in. My bad. Also appreciate how you put the other two channel tier list at the end.

    As a getae enjoyer I have to shill for them a second. I think, personally, that the falxmen shoulda gotten a mention here cause they are super important to making a good mid table army, as the trick is to mix in high quality with low quality to make up for the lack of good mid tier options. (guideline not a rule). This is how I have had the most success with them as they are basically the faction I one trick in MP. You can out charge a surprising amount of shock cav, and they are there fore great as supports for your flanks. The only issue is that it's difficult to deal with skirmishers with their roster, cause you have no Celtic spearmen equivalent.

  • @Skull.man00
    @Skull.man00 7 місяців тому +1

    I must strongly disagree. Specially about Seleucid, Nabatea, and Maessyli.
    1. Seleucid have variety of every type of units, which are also good. You don't need to focuse on Phalanx, you can go with different type of strategy.
    They got really good cavalry, archers, good melee and one of the best pikemen(if not the best one).
    All that also makes Seleucid balanced enough to fight every single faction.
    2. Nabatea got not only desert hoplites, but also good cavalry (shock, skrimisher, etc.). Not mentioning the pikemen, decent infantry roaster, and archer unit.
    You're not stuck to use one type of strategy(unlike Massylia, Athens, or Syracuse), and its good balanced.
    3. Maessyli (Aka Numidia) beside not having archers, has one of the best variety of units I experienced so far. Having both noble infantry and legionnaire units later on with good cavalry and peltasts makes it pretty much op, even against Rome.
    Also, you can spam cheap slave warriors if you feel like it, both mp and campaign.

    Why do you think Baktrian Royal Guard is a bad unit? That unit has Expert Charge Defense plus Frenzied Charge, so you can either charge pretty hard yourself or reflect the damage to a strong shock cavalry or infantry charge . It's my favourite hoplite unit in the game. I think the combination of horse archers/ good skirmirshing cav and heavy hoplites is pretty deadly, imo Bactria is a hell of a faction, at least for campaign.

      @@TheBikeOnTheMoon I agree that the low armour penetration of their spear is a drawback in comparison to other elite hoplites, but Frenzy Charge is really useful for me. Obviously you don't want an exhausted unit to keep fighting. What I do is a cyclo charge, sending second line reinforcements when the Frenzy Charge bonus fades. That works well for me.

      @cyfertea8707 Рік тому +1

      Never put them on the front and always place them in the flanks. Leave the javelin front line throwing to your roman infantry. Place your javelins to the flanks, to target non shielded or enemy ranged (but I would recommend targeting melee enemies instead), leave the archer sniping to sligers. Javelin can also be used to either cancel or weaken enemy cav charge. Javelin can also kill Elephants before they can even reach your lines. Basically, Javelins are like shotguns, they do deadly damage, but they need to be close and to attack where it hurts. Don't use them as a regular ranged since they won't work that way, they can do damage to shielded units but they don't have enough ammo to damage them enough, they also don't have the range to beat archers and slingers, so their best use is from the sides.

Since then, I have learned, if you make an army of 20 units of GOOD cavalry, the ONLY thing that can hold you back is a walled city.
