Plus Legend plays only on Very Hard battle difficulty, where the AI is just unfair to fight in melee.Įdit: I forgot the worse part, their mass is in a weird place where they can charge through infantry (for the charge), but cannot in melee (after the charge). Otherwise calvary serve the same use of wolves to chase down broken units but cost a lot more. If you're charging into the back of engaged infantry, then a ranged unit will probably do more damage than a calvary unit would and it's easier to micro. Sadly a lot of calvary outside of demigryphs and I think Grailknights are just bad, especially on the higher difficulties sadly. There's a beta meant to fix this but not sure how well it's worked so far. The big problems is that if an infantry unit counter charges it, they typically come out worse. They're the heptagonal peg in a room full of square and hexagonal holes.īig problem with calvary is that they're micro intensive typically, especially all the Empire calvary as they're shock calvary mainly. This is sort of the "myth of the midgame", there isn't really a "midgame" army composition because at the point you can get and afford to upkeep these midgame units they don't meaningfully outperform the early game ones which are cheaper and that lets you spend more money on building to a strong late game. Anything that will roll over Shield Spears will roll over Greatswords just as happily, if not moreso because they have lower MD and that can't be improved by redline whereas if you were determined to have an infantry frontline Spears can. They're in this awkward place where they're tier 3 but they need an extra building (and quite a pricy one for early game) and they themselves are too expensive to recruit and upkeep when you first get to tier 3.Īnd by the time you can afford them they don't really compete with the sort of things you would need them to deal with. That's true, but it doesn't make Greatswords good. Think we missed one? Give us a Modmail and suggest new Subreddits to add to the lists!
