Which faction(s) need a revamp on unit roster?

[ISA Gunner]

I'd really like to see a revamped Egyptian Caliphate. They're pretty generic at the moment and don't really depict Medieval Egypt very well in my opinion. Something along the lines of Broken Crescent's Egyptians would much better suit Egypt and give them some much needed diversity and flare.

How come no one has voted for the Mongols? Their units seriously suck. They have fewer kinds of archers than England, less powerful axe men than Denmark, and their elephants wont even survive 20 volleys of canon fire. Their units suck so hard that when I occasionally use them, by the end of the battle more than 10% of my Mongol units are lying dead.

Seriously though, Scotland sucks. But you could also give the Mongols more balanced roster. Mainly because playing as Mongols feels like cheating.

I've saw that some people have voted for the Roman Empire? I wonder why?

??? So the Mongols suck but playing with them feels like cheating? Not sure what you want there. Mongols have some of the best HA in the game currently. They are expensive though which I do think could be changed but also worth the price for human player.

I was being ironic about the mongol units sucking. Obviously they are overpowered.

But they are making super ninjas and elephant rocketlaunchers for Christ's sake!

And Hellenistic/Egyptian/Pharaoh/Phalanx armies.

I don't know. Game seems fine as is. I guess adding some more historical units for some weak factions might help, but I'm quite enjoying the game. How about unit type limits per army?

lolwut...?
I voted Romans by accident , I wanted the Turks/Egyptians to get a facelift cos they have very ugly units IMO.

Good God man, I should hope not!

[Polycarpe]

Want to try something funny. Try one unit of greek firethrower ves a unit of elephants. Who will win?

[Ferdiad]

This is a trick question, cos Chuck Norris wins against everything

Yep.

[Lanier]

I voted Scotland since I would definitely like to see more historical realism among their units.

In fact, I'd like to see more historical realism among all faction's units. Part of what made other mods (EB for RTW comes to mind) so great is the extremely in-depth historical realism that are put into each faction's unit rosters.

[Ferdiad]

Scotlands already been done so it shouldn't be in the poll.

Hard to read irony sometimes. Only clue was the 10% laying dead but that is about normal for any HA army so it didn't seem obvious.

The Mongols are quite powerful but also have expensive upkeep. Any armies with access to HA can play as Mongols do- just its easier with Mongols nice units.

I find it's helpful to have your sarcasm/irony detector on while on the Internet.
