I can see how that presents a challenge, horse archers are a pain, and when backed up by spearman and foot archers...Ouch! Whenever I played as the Greeks I recruited merc horse archers whenever I found them, there never seemed to be enough. They always leveled up super fast too. Nothing like riddling an enemy with arrows before crushing them with an heavy phalanx!
I forget, do Scythians have a well armoured horse archer? Armenians have Cataphract archers I think but I have never played Scythia.
I'm curious. I usually play as Greece, so what does the map look like when the AI is in charge? Has Greece crushed Macedonia and Thrace or do they just sit tight?
Happy Conquering!
