new steam tags

30 November, 2011 - Aloeus | 0 Comments

well, i decided i wanted some HoA steam tags, and well, instead of the standard rome tags, i went for a style used by the predecessor to the predecessor of the HoA, mine go like so: }|{-HoA-}|{*name*}|{-*rank*-}|{
keep the normal tags when on rome, and these steam tags dont need to be added, its just fun

P.S. dont include the * they are just there to designate a spot to be filled in by you!

well i have drawn up a list of tips for you, and anyone else who reads this can add on.
1.for 15-25k the most effective upgrades are gold sword and gold shield.
2.quality is better than quantity in most cases
3.get spears in a cavalry fight to shift the battle in your favor
4.a cav unit's secondary weapon is always more powerful, but cannot be used in a charge(ex. cataphracts have armor piercing maces which are extremely effective)
5.in a drawn out cav fight select your cav and press alt and attack at the same time to have them draw their secondary weapon.
6.you may know this already, but flanking with cav is the most effective way to win a battle(hammer and anvil)
7.put legionaries on fire at willto have them throw without charging(be careful, the throw at anything close enough)
8.legionary first cohorts are not worth the money
9.Archers are very effective when shooting against non shielded cav(excluding cataphracts) or in the backs of infantry
10.If you can, watch the Heir of Carthage on youtube,he has a playlist of rtw battles that you can just keep watching.
