Senate vs Phartia.

[Alue26]

Well guys, I have played an Custom Battle this day. It was Senate vs Phartia. The combination of the armies I don't remember anymore but this is my question: have you some tactics for an Custom Battle Senate vs Phartia on an 100k Denarii budget?

I suppose you mean Parthia, not Phartia? If so, bring lots of archers, full upgraded, a few legionairres (for the testudo and to protect the archers from cataphracts) and lots of cavalry. If you play it right, get the HA's tp shoot at your testudo'ed legionairres and shoot'em up with your archers. Take out cataphracts with your cavalry and if your archers are losing the missile war, take the fight to them by maneuvering your cavlry around them (without charging them, so as to take advantage of the skirmish mode) and then charge them from behind. If you are close enough to the edge of the map or your legionairres, they should have no where to run (fast enough) to get out of the way of your cav.
