"If you like foot soliders but u stink, be the goths. Once your at castle
age, do your specialty and make huskarals avalible at the barracks. then you
build like 10 rows of barracks wid 5-10 in each if you hav space near the
enemy's fort. then clik on huskarals to 15 on each barrack. they should be done
at the same time. Once they are all done, you hav a unstoppable army! but i
suggest you go in little groups cuz if you go as 1 huge army, all of ur ppl wont
be able to go. Plus, the siege ongars might sweep across ur army and destroy em
all. so go in little groups attacking from every side. but i suggest u take out
the villys and town center wid some groups and take our the aggressive forces
wid most of the other groups. if done right, u hav an indestructible army!" - Robin Hood
"mongols rock. the mongolian h. scorp is a nice little trinket to any
mongolian army. a mongolian h.scorp is as fast as a champ and 40 of them can
take any army thats not spread out (even 40 elephants). also a fully garrisoned
mongolian siege ram is about as fast as an eagle warrior this is suprising
because the ram is the slowest unit in the game. 40 h. scorps with 40 mangudai
20 siege ram is the goal to set for your self. mangudai take out siege, rams for
buildings, and scorps for everything else :-p. what a nice little combo, who can
beat it?

saracens also are very good :). their markets are awesome for those quik
fuedelers. using the market trade u can quikly make it to castle and start
pumping out those mamelukes. the mameluke can take out any unit in the game one
on one (xcept the war elephant and the teutonic knight), is tied with the
mangudai and the scout cavalry as being the fastest unit in the game, has a
ranged melee attack and gets +50 hit points with zeoletry and bloodlines.
the saracen heavy camel is also a very nice little noodle to add to the pasta.
having now 170 hp and rocks the lasagna out of any army.
the question is now? is the saracen h. camel better the elite mameluke? since
the elite mameluke has only 130 hp wen fully upgraded where the h. camel has
170. the elite mameluke has 14 attack fully upgraded, the h. camel 11 attack
fully upgraded. the elite mameluke has a starting one armor w/o being upgraded.
also the elite mameluke has a ranged melee attack which is rare. it all depends
on what ur tastes are. I personally like the range of the mameluke but you may
want something that lasts longer on the battle but doesn't deal out as much
damage. " - een
