Base Field of Glory 2 is free for the next 3 days if some of you don't have it:
If you expect skirmishers to take Roman infantry 1-to-1, then yes.Roman armies op confirmed? Archers, slingers and skirmishers very weak confirmed?
Come play online and find out. The AI is essentially brain dead.Roman armies op confirmed? Archers, slingers and skirmishers very weak confirmed?
As far as I've understood it, you don't go after heavy infantry with skirmishers, you go for the flanks. Since skirmishers evade the vast majority of (frontal?) attacks, you have nothing to lose.you can route heavy infantry with them but it requires 3-4 units continually launching missiles for several turns.
Just annihilated a big Roman army as the Parthians. Archers, slingers and skirmishers are not *decisive*, but when you give them horses (mobility) they can cause significant attrition and disorganize the enemy enough for the big hammer blow.Roman armies op confirmed? Archers, slingers and skirmishers very weak confirmed?
Just pick whichever one contains the army lists that interest you. I don't have a high opinion of the AI, the campaign mode, or the preset battles, but multi-player is comfy and at least one person needs to have the dlc to create the room with the army of choice.Maybe I will once I've figured out the mechanics. What about DLC? Is there a must-have one? They are very cheap atm.
There seems to be an AI mod for that. Depending on what exactly you don't like about the campaigns and epic battles that is.I don't have a high opinion of the AI, the campaign mode, or the preset battlesMaybe I will once I've figured out the mechanics. What about DLC? Is there a must-have one? They are very cheap atm.
sorry for necromancy, but as a person that put many hours into this gamethe preset battlesMaybe I will once I've figured out the mechanics. What about DLC? Is there a must-have one? They are very cheap atm.
