Anyway, I recommend securing the rest of Frisia by defeating the Angles. 15 turns later and they are still puttering around down there I really don't know why someone hasn't finished them off. In my game, they ran out of my lands and headed straight for Rome. Recruit them when you can.Īfter you defeat the Saxons, they will be a Horde. The Franks have excellent Cavalary so be sure to have 3 or more units per army. Personally I went with the Lancers but both units looked good. This will allow you to recruit Lancers as well as Melee Cavalry. After that work on some civic techs so you don't fall too behind. This will reduce your melee unit maintanence by a lot. It will also allow for same turn city sieges.Īfter researching that tech, I strongly recommend Militarized Society. Getting ranged units and siege units early on will ensure you dominance on the battlefield. I recommend getting this tech as soon as possible and having an Artisan ready to upgrade. This will unlock the wood carver which will unlock bow units and the oganer. Start researching military techs especially Roman Logistics System. Unfortunately we don't have oganors yet so we have to build siege towers before we can attack. I used both of my armies since the Saxon king was sitting with a full army and this is a city, not a town. I spent 2-3 turns recruiting units in both armies and didn't attack the Saxon stronghold until the next year. I recruited spearmen until I had 4 in each army and then recruited axemen.
