After the last patch horseman got a huge dps buff
but the "heavy" mercenaries are not

I'm not sure that it's intentional or not
but i really think you should buff the "heavy" mercenary too because mercenaries should have something advantage over regular army ? (ex. hun infantry have bonus movespeed etc.)

yeah, seems really unbalanced to quadruple the attack power of the heavy horse that got can train, but leave the heavy horse mercs and elephants with their old weak attack value. was the quadrupling of the heavy horse attack power a mistake? as that seems like that's a huge jump for them, when none of the other troops had any adjustments made to them. if anything, i would have thought that the archers needed a little bit of an attack boost, or at least the British ones, as the extra +1 range isn't very effective with how stupid the game ai is in game. especially when you use the rally cmd with them, as they will run up to the normal archers distance and /or move directly into the the line of fire from towers or ballista towers, even though they could easily attack those defense structures without take any damage, if they actually used that +1 range appropriately.

archers still quite strong in my opinion just because x4 dmg make defender hardly reach them so I'm not into the atk boost for archers. Does British archer still outrange tower after the defensive building range update ?

EDIT: talking about AI i think AI vs Wall is the worse lol

It's a little too late to reply to this post isn't it? Units have changed over time & these days Mercs are a nice bonus but not your ''bread & butter'' troops. Besides, as the Merc Camp is upgraded more powerful troops become available.

I was wondering wtf the OP was talking about until I saw the date.

Does explain why my Medieval Elephants are so bloody useless though.
