Quote:Not sure what you mean with 1). Kalin was pretty much the mastermind behind our attack. I shared all vital knowledge with him about tha battlefield, unit locations etc. and suggested a thing or two, but in the end he lead us imo. and I thought he did a good job with what we had.
The first attack wasn't really done well. It was spread out and arrived piecemeal. Given the intense mobility advantage of the defenders they were able to move a mobile defence force wherever it was needed leaving cities not threatened. You also put far too much importance on pillaging. When the horses were pillaged the talk amongst your teams was as though that was a decisive victory. Sullla and Speaker had it reroaded in short order due to their workers. Pillaging a strategic resource would have required permanent control over the area to avoid Indian repair teams negating the damage. That was never achieved.
When Sullla and Speaker gained catapults it was clear that they would be able to survive. Dantskis withdrawal merely hastened the process of clearing their territory.
Overall you guys needed better coordination(you may have been sharing the info, but there wasn't enough acting on it. Staggered attacks probably saved India), and a better overall attack plan.
