Northern Armies

• Army A:
  Description: Army A has no Pike, but an extra Sword-6 and is the only Northern one to have a Warband. This sounds reminiscent of the German tribes with concentration on swords and very large groups.
  Approach: Because of the large component of sword, this army is best fought using plenty of cavalry.
• Army B:
  Description: Army B is the only one to have a Spear (6). This sounds like a Macedonian group.
  Approach: As there is no perfect way to target spear, this is the most difficult army to program against. Probably heavy cavalry and/or warbands are the best approach.
• Army C:
  Description: Army C's unique feature is to have a second Cavalry-6. This sounds like steppe riders such as the Sarmatians.
  Approach: An army emphasizing cavalry is best fought with pikes.

Southern Armies

• Army D:
  Description: Army D is the only one to feature Elephants (7). It also has a Spear-6, and a Warband. We can perhaps imagine it as a Carthaginian force accompanied, as they usually were, by Celtiberian tribes.
  Approach: An opponent should have pike to counter its elephants and cavalry. Archers or light horse might be tried as a backup plan for the former.
• Army E:
  Description: Army E's special cavalry is Light Horse and also features a second Spear. This force could be a group like the Numdians of North Africa.
  Approach: Heavy cavalry would be the best way to defeat this army's lighter horse forces.
• Army F:
  Description: Army F also has Light Horse plus doubling of both its Cavalry and Foot Skirmishers. With this large amount of horse, Persians, and particularly the Parthian horse who defeated Crassus' Roman army, come to mind.
  Approach: Again, heavy cavalry would be the best way to defeat this army's lighter horse forces. Try not to let this army acquire a military leader as it can become very effective using Ambush in defense.
