Default Re: Rebalance Mod game starting, everyone welcome!

100% longbow armies leave you vulnerable to cavalry and archers - not to mention that they're quite expensive. It's true that with ap, they're much better than base Doms II pure-longbow armies. But the rest of Man's lineup is also better, with possible exception of the Wardens, who were already good... and building purely longbows and mages, you'll have lots of resources left over every turn, which you'll probably wish you had used later on when capitol resources are limiting...

I'm not an expert playing Man, but I only build pure armies when playing Ulm, and Abysia. Speaking of which, I wonder if Abysia's units are too homogeneous? Does anyone else build armies purely of a single unit type when playing Abysia?
