    If you start as parthia, and end up taking over the closer patthavian city which is a blacksmith, and convert it to the armor bonus one and eventually get it to the rank 3 level... -_- Royal cataphracts max out the armor bar on the unit description. THEY ARE UNSTOPPABLE. I once charged a Royal Peltasts General with my unit rank 7 Cataphract General and in the initial charge killed 40 out of 120 units. They threw the javelins as I was charging in and didn't kill a single unit. The reason why I would put them as first, however, is because the fact that as a general unit they are the best. Your general is more mobile than most foot units (The weakness of the RC), You are more armored than most other units in the game, and if you have second wind you can use trample and diamond formation over and over again to demolish EVERYTHING.

They used to be relatively cheap too, but it looks like they cost more than Praetorians these days.

    Ok so I've played Rome 2 for a while now and I wanted to just randomly share a tip with you guys. When you are playing as Rome after you conquer the Etruscan league go for grease preferably Eperis and then when you capture a Greek settlement set up a auxiliary barracks there this will allow you to recruit peltast, hoplites, and citizen calvery this is a good way to get decent units early on in the game keep in mind tho you probably want to keep one army back in Rome in case war breaks out with the barbarians or Carthage with you

    I've actually ran some tests as to which unit is the most powerful using a no stamina and no morale mod. Pound for Pound the Thracian Nobles are the best infantry in the game, with their charge they start off against any unit on top (oathsword, praetorians, lusitani nobles, heroic nobles, etc) and then from there they basically go 1 for 1 trading units until they come out on top, especially with their headhunt making them all the more deadly.

    I got a slightly different approach. If you are playing a campaign I got to say; Principes! They are available in the early game. They don't cost that much and with a dignitaries they cost less. Nothing can stand them. They choke a spot. Pierce through spot. Hold spot so you can hammer and anvil. They are just legionnaires but in very early game.

    PG units are simply unstoppable. I played a friend once with an entire army of PG against a balanced army, and all I did was charge straight into his formation. A massive blob formed and I ended up winning, losing only two units even after losing my general at the very beginning. Their morale is insane, their stats are loaded, so even when they are surrounded they'll hold their ground and win.

    This might sound stupid, but I would love someone to explain this to me. What is the difference between melee attack and defence? Cuz when a unit is in melee, it anyways is both defending and attacking, so what's the difference?
    Let's make an example, 2 units have the same qualities, the only difference between them being one has 10 more melee attack, but also 10 less melee defence. Who is better?

    • @xtotalwarzone

    Best units in the campaign are the elite pikemen of Macedon and the hellenic cataphract units you can get in some of the successor states. The AI is so dumb all you have to do is put one unit of the elite pikemen in the choke point during a siege and the AI will try to run his whole army through it. Also hellenic cataphracts were absolute destroyers, you could take out the entire enemy army with just that one unit of cav. Chariots were OP as fuck too, dunno if they got nerfed tho

    • @xtotalwarzone
      @xtotalwarzone  10 ปีที่แล้ว

      Hywooz zoowyh Evocati is cheaper, and you get more bang for your buck. Armoured legionaries are extremely good as well though, you can choose both of them, it all depends on the budget.

    • @hywooz
      @hywooz 10 ปีที่แล้ว

      The difference is only 40, which basically is almost nothing, when you keep in mind that 1 Evocati unit costs 890. Admit it, Evocati just sounds a lot better ;-)

    • @xtotalwarzone

    Campanian Cav are a pretty good unit, high armour + high melee attack

    Tried this game and the control sux. I clicked the soldiers to move and they re just standing there. The manual control sight for ballistas is some shit view. What's the point of introducing such feature when u can't see shit what u're shooting at

    Oathsworn? I mean they are the strongest infantry unit and with the ability of head hunt and frenzy they are so op

  • @deluxebigmac
    @deluxebigmac 7 ปีที่แล้ว

    Royal Spartans being the best infantry beating pratorians and oathsworns I thought they would be number 1. Plus they are spears so they destroy cav and their influence with their expert charge defense make them op

    I can keep saying but why you didnt put one of these

    • @xtotalwarzone
      @xtotalwarzone  9 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Movies View Because this list is not purely about damage, it is about how useful a unit is. The first 2 you mentioned are overpriced. Sword Followers and Evocati will do slightly less damage for a huge cost decrease. Pikemen are simply underwhelming in this game. (Except when you want to trash the AI)

    • @papadim8601

      but they can keep units off with their formation and some hae good armour too

    spartan pikes is better if your mentioning about budget , And for those praetorian guards are the best you cant have 20 praetorian guards it will ultimately drain your money,
    Armored Legion and evocati is good unit without Skinning your treasury

  • @arthas640

    not the best but my ideal army is pike center with theuros spear flanks. The theuros spears guard against cavalry while peppering the enemy infantry with javelins. Combine that with some cavalry to attack enemy skirmishers and to hit the enemy rear.
