Not a multiplayer, but do have a question for those that play frequently.
In my most recent single player game Mongolia was running away with it. They had a good amount of Keshiks (I counted at least 10). He was top of the charts on pointy sticks. I hadn't got to knights and had no companion cavalry for the start of the war.
So I had no mounted units, and still had hoplites. The only thing I had to my advantage were I was on defense, and between good gold and production I could churn out a unit once a turn for about 10 turns.
In this scenario I thought that even with a moderately competent human in control of Mongolia it would have been game over. Which brings me to my question. All things being relatively equal (tech level, # of units, player skill) is there a really effective counter to Keshiks ?
