Re: Unit types strategy?

Thank you Durk for the answer - was not that sure I will get any. So legions are my core units obviously. How do axilliaries complement them, what role do they play with maximising the battle results? Do I look at the traits the elements in the unit have in order to see what they are good for or are...

Unit types strategy?

How do I utilise different unit types? Which terrain type is good for what units? Do I use cavalry as scouts? What are for example axilia units used for - any special use or just filler for more final combat power? What terrains are suitable for legions?

Any help is of much help. :dada:

Re: Supply

I do not know for sure. I calculate supply based upon elements, not current stock. Each unit has a certain number of element, usually from four to ten, but if you click on individual units you will see how many. Regions have a supply value. A city, for example, might have 20 supply. You gather supp...

Re: How do I actually destroy an army?

So if I understand this right, before I attack my enemy I send light infantry unit or a cavalry unit into a province I don't want the enemy to retreat after it is attacked and looses the fight/breaks form the fight?

Oh, gotta try it! Have 60 hours with this game and didn't know this.

Slave legions not replenishing and other questions

Hi. I am loving the game. :dada: Playing as Marius vs Sulla. In the campaign I get the option to raise slave legions. When these slave legions fight they lose elements which don't replenish. I know how to replenish other units - I put them into the depot province and buy chits in production tab, 1 c...

Re: Supply question

When you toggle the supply map filter, each province shows the basic number of the supply production which needs to be then multiplied by different factors according to civilization level of the province, road presence, etc. Thus a tooltip number is what the province really supplies and not the supp...

Yes I did. It only ads 1 or two frame (so the game is not playable yet, far from it) while taking away a lot from the map-reading element. A definite no-go.

Things in this scenario have changes since the latest patch so that is why your experience does not match the one with the players playing this scenario with the old patch. :)

Haven't had the courage to delve into this game much so can't help you with advice here.
