2H on foot works as well, especially when you can just spam whatever comes at you, whilst wearing full plate and so on.

I used to get an army of Rhodok Sharpshooters, and order them to hold the closest high point in the battlefield.

Lame, but effective.

Even more lame one is using a full nord Huscarl, or Swadian knight army.

Well mass sharpshooter or mass huscarl isn't that lame (except in sieges), you can't win 1vs4 battles issuing 0 orders with them, unlike with swadian or sarranid cav. Hell, you can't even win 1v2 battles with anything other than cav in Native, except when the numbers are really low and you can make a difference as a player.

Not true, you can combine mass archery and a few cavs to rape enemy armies. Sacrifice the horsemen, the time it takes for them to die, your archers will rape the unprotected enemy. If your cav are all companions then they dont even die.

At one point I had a full archer army in PoP and I fought my battles by riding behind the enemy so the entire formation would face me and get shot in the back by my archers on the hill. Then I suddenly realised how lame and unfun it was and I haven't played singeplayer since then. Apart from The Last Days.

When i played single player i had an army made out of pretty much only Vaegir archers, pretty damn awesome launching millions of arrows pinning down all the enemies before they can even reach you... had it's flaws tho..
