According to the <strike>Manual</strike> Strategy Guide you get a 400% bonus against Barbarians on Chieftain.
Oh well, at least SOMETHING works.![]()
Yeah I'm not sure that has an effect though. I thought it did. I'd been able to send regular horsemen all over the place and win battles, get up to elite, and win even more battles. Never had a Great Leader though. I'm starting to think that's a myth.
Anyway, I'd just gotten up to Knights and was having some trouble with barbs out near my precious saltpeter resource. I figured this would be a good chance to see how a Knight fights. I was thinking that just the sight of an elite Knight would scare the barbarians into yellow. My first fight with a regular barbarian warrior and my Knight gets his ass handed to him. He wins, but is on his last red notch and is forced to retreat the field as the other barbarian horsemen and warriors give chase.
Sure this was probably bad luck. But it sure seems to me that such extradinary events should be atleast as rare as say... getting a Great Leader. Probably much rarer than that even.
