Using more units than allowed...

Post by Aeneas Stator »

Hi,

I'm facing a opponent who has the Byzantine army of 493-550 and he has 9 "armoured riders with bows" -I use German localisation: "Gepanzerte Reiter mit Bogen"-. The unit's selection screen allows only 7... how is that possible?

If you're playing at Medium = 1200 FP each, then minimum 3 plus an optional number of up to 7 Armoured Horse Archers (3 + 0/7) are allowed, i.e., 10 in total.

Or perhaps you are looking at the Medium Size SP list at Emperor Difficulty, which is only 855 points, and hence has 2 + 5 = 7.

All of the lists are scaled according to the total points.

Thanks for your answers,

indeed, I was looking at the SP costume battle unit selection, where you have 679/855 points, and 2+5 for that rider unit. I was comparing this with a MP battle, in which I happens 972/1200, and so 3 + 7.

Thanks for the insights to both of you. Saludos.

My pleasure: glad you got it sorted out.

As with many things in life it's what you can't see that should concern you, particularly when playing hide and seek with the Byzantines.
