![]() If the enemy has siege equipment, use your cavalry to wipe them out (any engagement will cause the enemy to charge towards your lines and break the stalemate). Then rush then while collapsing your lines into a tight formation to get a surround on them. Since the enemy is less likely to spread their lines, they will receive MASSIVE causalities from a straight-on ballista shot. All you need to do is spread your army as thin as possible to reduce arrow casualties and wait them out. You can sit back for 10 minutes cutting down the enemy and since it takes so many arrows to take someone down, then siege equipment (like ballistas) are more effective the longer they can shoot (plus the 20 people in a siege company are hard to hit and have decent armor). As your archers die, their arrows are transferred to the still living company. If you have more archers/crossbowmen/javelin throwers, wipe out 90% of their long ranged units. This is especially true if the enemy has archers themselves as that causes them to sit back and wait for the archers to finish. No matter what difficulty you are on, the enemy will not attack (unless you hit fast forward and the line accidentally hits you in one of their false charges). One of the finest exploits in the game is to put archers on the front line and NOT have them retreat. ![]() ![]() Exploitation of the So-Called Annoying Arrows ![]()
