Re: Black Forest - Ulm

The Rangers are like Longbowmen for Crossbows. They move 2, have good precision and are 12 gold, 8 resource. For an already resource rich Ulm you can make these by the metric ton. Also when fighting Independants you only need 1 (or possibly 2) Heavy Infantry in front and a crew of 20+ (240 Gold, 80 Resources) of the Rangers behind to mop up even Heavy Cav provinces (on Indep 6) and take minimal losses. Most rout before they ever get to look at the xbows.

The Black Forest Ulm is not particularly research rich. I don't see any resource bonus site in the capital. Did I miss anything? But I'm not belittling the Rangers. They're some nasty critters and very good buys. |
