Sorry was confusing the Hippie Cavalry with the Citizen Cavalry. Doesn't change the fact I still believe general units should be a bit more ELITE than that of there recruitable counterpart that is a stack unit not a General unit.
HAHAHA that seems to be a common question from you, did I play the game... Let me check ummm yes over 265 hours to this point. Testing EVERYTHING I can think of, but thank you for asking if I had... When I read about this time period EVERYONE was in decline except Rome it seems. Sparta was in decline, Athens was in decline, from the games portrayal Carthage is in decline and broken up, Seleucid is a shell of its self with satrapies that it cant even trade with on the FREAKING SILK ROAD... From reading your posts I cant tell if you defend/prefer arcadie stream lining or historical accuracy, you bounce between the two and its a bit confusing.
Varied unit roster you say??? One unit of pike, one unit of shock cavalry, 2 units of melee cavalry, a unit or two of ranged cavalry, a couple units of spear/hoplite, a couple of thorax, and I think 5 ranged units give or take one unit. Yup that sounds like DLC VARIED CONTENT to me, jeez you are so very easy to please there Karam
Oh and I forgot those 10 units of siege equipment that almost every other faction gets... Sorry
