Yea, some micro could have helped there :) Thanks for the comment.

As maligned as the Greek cavalry are, the fact is light cavalry, even mediocre light cavalry, can be extremely dangerous when they fly into the rear of an engaged unit. For that reason, I propose a test. How many units in the Roman infantry roster can a unit of militia hoplites and militia cavalry working together take out? I reckon up to late legionary, at which point I think even rear charges will start to do more damage to the Greek cavalry than to the legionaries.

@qualityoldgames7721 21 день назад

An interesting suggestion. I will add that to To-Do list :) Thanks for the comment.

someone sponsor this dude, good content but dying PC :(((

@qualityoldgames7721 22 дня назад

Thank You! Though, the problem seems to lie in the editing software... :)

@Warmaker01 22 дня назад

The video starts getting choppy when the Militia Cavalry are preparing to charge at 1:17 and stays like that until 1:47.

@qualityoldgames7721 22 дня назад

Thanks for the heads-up. It seems to be the editing software - though editing of this vid did not deviate from other vids. Well, I need to look into it a bit further :)

@user-js2xn9jv9l 21 день назад

It's just the engine of the game not being able to keep up with the sheer raw power of a militia cavalry charge

@ethanlim3222 22 дня назад

Also huh, one of the rare times armoured ellies perform better than regular ellies

@finsfan90 22 дня назад

I thought for sure that the Cataphracts would lose since the Chosen Axemen counter armored units. The shock of their charge was just too much tho.

@qualityoldgames7721 21 день назад

Agreed on that. Overall, it was nice to see that this type of infantry unit is vulnerable to cav charges even from the front :) Thanks for the comment.

@Tudor_Rusan 22 дня назад

I wonder what it takes for them to beat Cataphracts! Counter-charge Warcry Snow Woods (definitely, since cavalry gets huge penalties)

@napoleoncomplex2712 22 дня назад

A really big hill might do it.

@qualityoldgames7721 22 дня назад

That might work :) Thanks for the comment. Let's add that to To-Do list

@squishymusic9723 22 дня назад

I feel like this is all wrong Both from a gameplay and irl viewpoint, these axemen should be terrible against cavalry. Sure the axes are high damage but they have no reach. Those lances would be piling up with the bodies.

@Warmaker01 22 дня назад

Part of the issue is cavalry going in and getting stuck in melee. Most of them aren't good for that. Even a head on frontal charge into a good infantry unit, ready to receive it, won't be as rewarding as a flank or rear charge. You had to cycle charge with most cavalry. Something like Cataphracts just rolling in, head on, and crushing great infantry units in drawn out melee combat isn't the norm in a lot of TW games. In a regular game, effort would be pinning the infantry and maneuvering cavalry for a flank or rear charge. High casualties and shock to morale. Then take the cavalry out of melee and set up another charge. Companion Cavalry would be better than what they were being used for in this video. Hell, even Light Cavalry can do some good stinging with a flank / rear charge, especially considering the cost difference going on here.

@squishymusic9723 22 дня назад

@@Warmaker01 oh absolutely, manipulating cavalry in TW like that is very satisfying and head on prolonged strikes is not their MO.

@qualityoldgames7721 22 дня назад

Agreed. Though, cycle charge could have worked rather well here imo :) Thanks for the comment.

@rorschach1985ify 20 дней назад

Despite their wins the fact they usually took so many casualties and even came close to losing to Milita Cav of all things really shows these guys are not good at facing cavalry head-on. The AI from what I see will pull its cavalry back at times to cycle charge and that's not getting into the fact they will usually have more than one and if one charge can do that much damage to Chosen Axemen, a second will end them.

@qualityoldgames7721 20 дней назад

Agreed, they were struggling quite a bit in this battle :) Thanks for the comment.

@pront5208 20 дней назад

Would units not suffer army loss morale penalty towards the end? I guess both sides suffer it but perhaps it might affect one unit more than the other.

@qualityoldgames7721 19 дней назад

Thanks for the good question. The victor is ordered to withdraw from the field. (That is possible in Rome) Thus, the balance of power does not shift too much :)

@pront5208 19 дней назад

@@qualityoldgames7721 Yeah I figured it was mostly equalised by that, and also just time consuming to have a new match for each unit 1v1.

@gieroj2848 21 день назад

Really cav is so weak in Rome 1?

@qualityoldgames7721 21 день назад

Thanks for the comment. From the front, at least in some cases. At the same time, from the back, they are really devastating :)

@rorschach1985ify 20 дней назад

I need to say this because it has been getting worse and worse, but you need to check what is causing your videos to stutter because it is making it hard to even watch what is happening clearly at points. The parts around 1:30 to 1:48 were a big example of this issue.

@qualityoldgames7721 20 дней назад

Thanks for the comment. I am looking into it. The issue seems to be DaVinci Resolve when the video has been edited. Doing my best to fix this asap :)
