    Pretty good. But four losses? Come on, you had all HAs.

    I'll be impressed when you post a screenshot of you winning with 4 peasants vs. 4 armoured swordsmen. With maximum 10 losses.

    Nice one, I won once without losing a single unit, the enemy only had ladders and rams, destroyed the ram at once with ballista towers and the laddermen died as soon as they came up.

    I had a similar victory, except with foot archers shooting from a well fortified position on the mountainside. The enemy was tired and demoralized when they finally drew level with them, so my fresh infantry raced down and it was a total rout within moments. Read my AAR if you want the whole story.

    Frankly it's easy to get such tiny losses vs such huge kills when you're pitting HAs against infantry. Heck, in the Kingdoms: Americas campaign Spanish Dragoons and Mounted Thunder Braves can obliterate several Aztec stacks in one sitting and then come back for second helpings.

    In one battle I won 2000 units with only 6 men (6 men, not units). I had a screenshot but can't find it (I exploited a bug)

    it isnt and Ill tell u why:

    1: makuria uses light infantry, meaning that bows will have an amazing effect due to them having little armor and the high fire rate of bows

    2: HA's are incredibly mobile, the OP just kited the enemy the whole time. Not to mention that he played on a hilly terrain which completely exhausts infantry.

    3: The makurian army had to use a captain which gives way to little morale.

    4: dont know if u play(ed) BC, but the makurians are more of a strength in numbers faction, having 182 men more than a faction like the ayyubids doesnt weight up against the quality vs quantity conflict of these two factions.

    oh and the OP made a good amount of own casualties as well.
