Cavalry should be somewhere between the Archers and Infantry.
Infantry should be at the front, as stated. We share the same tactics.Īrchers must be protected at all times and should be at the rearmost. Originally posted by Hurk:As Ishida said. Just remember to tell them to F3 > F2 again when the enemy is nearer) Why waste ammo on low percentage shots when the enemy is far away.
2 > F3 > F1 and 2 > F3 > F1 (archers and cav archers to stop firing. That way the enemies forces are separated and any reinforcements they send in will not overwhelm mine thus minimizing my casualties) Often when I see the enemy charge toward me on minimap at start of battle I will have my Cavalry wait until their Cav is near my infantry line, tell Cav to charge( 3 > F1 > F3) then when their first cav wave is killed off I call back my Cavalry (3 > F1 > F2) until their infantry and archers are near mine then I tell them to charge again. 1 > F2 > F4 (infantry stand closer - prob only use if they have shields or about to take a cavalry charge). 1 > F2 > F1 (infantry advance 10 paces). 2 > F2 > F2 (archers fall back 10 paces).
I just found that spamming this command when you have a lot of cavalry helps to avoid the bug where they dismount when they cannot move. at the start of battle is f1 > f2 (follow me, since everyone is selected by default at start of battle you tell everyone to follow you).
