Caelum a bit cheap?
I have noticed that the less resourceful (read "dumb as a rock") PD commanders do not compensate for flying units - they let the infantry rush forward, and the flier then telefrag the commanders causing massive rout. This makes PD less useful when fighting caelum (unless you leave a contingent of infantry where you think commanders will be stationed, but that is a guesswork).
Anyway, the flying unit mechanics in the game seem a bit strange to me. |
Re: Caelum a bit cheap?
Flying PD has its own edge.
Most experienced players will set order with retreat for their scouts at the border provinces, and flying PD is the best way to hunt them down at battlefield before they escape. Besides, can someone clarify if the flying PD also get the patrol bonus? |
Re: Caelum a bit cheap?
Flyers make good raiders, so long as no other air power has cast a global storm.
They're one size class more than ground-pounders, meaning that they both eat more and have less troop density per square, hampering them a bit in melee. |

In my experience the flying infantry don't target the commanders. Instead they fly into the enemy infantry and generally die horribly in melee.
Not sure how you're getting yours to go after the commanders and ignore the troops. |
Re: Caelum a bit cheap?
Certain nations get archers and infantry for pd. The commander generally stays behind the archers, while the infantry rushes forward. I guess if you set Caelumn warriors to hold and attack archers, you can kill enemy pd commanders easily.

Of course they after have high enough morale I believe to bypass the enemy troops to strike at the commanders on the back row. |

Tips between turns say that units that are
-fast -scary -flying are better at patroling. |
Re: Caelum a bit cheap?
I'm also 99% sure the troops in national PD make no difference in terms of autopatrol - it's just based on the numbers.
If you really want 100% sure,.. well I don't know what to tell you. There aren't many things people will say they're 100% sure about, especially in dom3. |
