Default Re: Effective army for Machaka

Hi,

I saw that battle because I had a scout in the province. The main thing that I noticed is that your arrows were basically ineffective. I recently fought a Machaka opponent who used wind guide (I think) and fire arrows (definitely) to great effect.

I also thought the living statues should have started a little farther forward and your spiders should have held back longer to let the Black Knights use up their lances on the living statues.

But, overall that Ulm army was just completely bad-*ss. I would not have wanted to face it. That army was SCARY. He had a LOT of Master Smiths casting LOTS of bladewinds, and he had over 20 black knights, and he had a lot of other wizards as well.

I think you might have wanted to mass your cavalry on one flank instead of putting part of it on each flank also. It was just bad luck that your black hunters ran straight into his knights.

That Ulm army is the best army in our game FYI. The only army close to it is the main Pythium army.

John
