    The Aserai unit you looked at really quick was their t5 infantry that comes from their basic recruit line. It was not their elite line of troops. Their elite line is cavalry starting with Aserai Youth and going up to t6 Aserai Vanguard Faris which is cavalry unit with 220 throwing, 280 riding and 220 polearm.

    The Falx was a famously devastating weapon, reportedly able to pierce the roman armor. Look up falx tests on youtube for some kind of evidence this might not be an exaggeration. Terrifying weapon.

    Personally I like a mix of Battanians and Imperials, since the imperials mesh well and you can get well armored palantian guards more easily, as a supplement to your highborn archers. Palantian guards are pretty beefy themselves so your archers will be little less vulnerable in a scrap. Plus Cataphracts are exactly the thing that Battanians are lacking.

    • @seanmac1793
      @seanmac1793 4 роки тому

      The imperial also cover the crossbow and horse archer roles as well as having tanky infantry to screen for the battanain shock troops and the empire units all have sheilds from teir 2 so that's also good they complement each other very well. The only thing is the legionaries don't have javelins, like why they were a staple of Roman warfare maybe it made the legionaries just too well rounded but hey still want them

    I’d look at Battanian cavalry in the same way say the Gauls or Romans would, use early on to skirmish and to pick of fleeing troops.
    I’d keep the horsemen in heavy cav, and scouts+mounted skirmishers in light cav, or maybe one in each cav role.

  • @teambellavsteamalice
    @teambellavsteamalice 4 роки тому

    If you ever remake this guide, say if there are major changes, some tips. I'd go vertically, describing each tier of a branch because one follows the other and similar things apply. Next, I'd summarize the lousy ones and focus mostly on the good ones and what you can do with them.
    Like if mixing just Fians and Wildlings, what would you miss? If your priority is a durable army, minimizing losses, would Battania be a good choice?
    I saw the upkeep cost of the nobles go from a few coins up to 10 and 15 in the last tiers. Doesn't seem too expensive, right? I didn't pay attention to the other cost, but you might mention how they compare to other factions.
    What are good but cheap troops to park in cities for defense? Would you advise a lower number of tier 3 and up or a higher number of fodder troops?
    Lastly, if I were to mix some other faction cavalry in, would that give morale penalty or so? If so, would you advise to swap armies, foot for sieges and hideouts, cavalry otherwise? I liked doing that in Warband, parking what I don't need in a city.
