Almost all of my food came from raiding and sacks.This exploratory article reviewed the professional literature related to the construct of multigenerational trauma and the importance of cultural identity and practices as healing and protective/resilience factors against such trauma. I had roughly 4-5 HI, 2 bowmen, 6-7 Heavy cavs, a despot, 4 cannons and a supply wagon with some heavy archers to spare (Mongols, get them free for each stable, so did not keep a count, although I had 3 stables). I myself am not that big into cavalry, but today while mistakenly taking the Mongols for Lakota, I realized just about how awesome they can be.

I prefer to build a separate artillery force (3 trebuchets and a supply wagon) and make an attack on one of the outposts Start building your main army slowly and steadily using the resources from raiding while your flash army keeps the enemy engaged.It can also hold a sizeable army until you build defenses and/or send reinforcements.The flash army can move fast (doubly so if used forced march), ambush and patrol the enemy territory for taking out merchants, caravans and resource buildings.This alongwith the Despot is your flash army. Have 2 Heavy Cavs, and 2 Horse archers ready.Have a barracks ready and some defense troops. The map style was Himalayas, so that helped! Fortunately, my strategy was unaffected by misinterpretation, I still was going to make Stables, and raid early with cavalry, and then focus on an army of heavy cavalry.


When I was playing a random map, I was given Mongols (but I mistook them for Lakota!! mea culpa!!). Learn from historyĪ liberal use of heavy cavalry units right from the start of the game can really make a difference between a well fought battle and a whooping victory. In fact the fall of Alexander was largely attributed due to a mutiny amongst his vanguard troops. The light cavalry for quick raids (which I shall cover in a separate post) and the heavy cavalry (or his Companions as the vanguard unit). A major part of all Alexander the Great’s battle strategy included cavalry.
