You say their stats aren't that bonkers, but... it's an archer unit with a massive missile attack (only one less than Cretans or foresters) that can match most infantry claw for claw AND has fast moving with good stamina. Pretty much the only thing that directly counters it is heavy cavalry - and even that will have trouble with being shot to pieces on approach (54 models being shot at by 80 archers) unless they are something like cataphracts.
@@MartinGreywolf oh they're very good; don't get me wrong. It's more that they got wiped out in seconds in the original battle that crashed. So that was fresh in my mind. 😅
I used to love to play Germans, according to CWB rules (no more than 2 Berserkers and some limit on cav and other units). I was able to destroy most people who played Romans. Problem was that you couldn't beat Phalanxes.

Very interesting... I'm curious how the Judean zealots would have done

always enjoy your videos appreciate what you do
maybe phrygian infantry and sickle-men could have been add up
Looks like those ladies chose the man instead of the bear this time. Even if they had bearskins on.
I'm sure there is a deep morale in this video.
