Actually, you're stupid if you actually believe one word of the crap you wrote.
Archers, at least 75% of them, do NOT focus cav. No matter if HA or 1h or Lance. They do NOT shoot them cuz shooting down a horse doesn't give you those nice kills on the scoreboard for e-peen.
Archers shoot peasants, they shoot low armour guys and only, ONLY, when they are under cav pressure some, SOME NOT ALL, start actually shooting cav.
That is EU1 reality...

The crap you just wrote is retarded. Kills don't mean shit anymore, its points for valour....that's all people care about is exp and gold. Who the fuck cares about KDR as if it matters for shit.

The yumi should not be as powerful, that I agree with. I also think that heavy armor should effect accuracy on horse more. HA's should have medium armor at most and all those that are going to bring up historical bullshit this isn't a historical game...we have katana's killing people in plate.

Indeed, when I play my archer, I follow the melee.

Best way to get a ton of easy kills and really impact the round.

Its easier to follow melee if you're a hybrid archer. Then if the "friendly" melee decides they actually don't mind you dying you can at least defend yourself or run away.

Being close to the melee ball isn't as beneficial for pure archers. What's the point of a slow shooting, accurate bow if you the guy's right in front of you anyways and you have to constantly move.

This, also many times the melee blob runs off ahead too fast to keep up with this weighted arrows...then the opposite teams blob is suddenly behind you..

Ok. I rant.  HA on HEAVY (PLATED) HORSE ... NO!

Dont tell me teamplay. Dont tell me nerf this or that. Just dont allow HA on HEAVY HORSE.

Heavy Cav is dangerours (bumb, hard to kill). Skilled HA is dangerous becouse of ranged. Combinde its like devil rubs his cunt.

NO to HA on Heavy Cav. Even if high level. This must be stopped.

Rant over. (though good job on the sounds Fin  :mrgreen:)

EDiT Poll reaction: yes / no / maybe ... just delete heavy cav for HA!

I think heavy cav is fine up till kataphractoi, its not the horse that's the problem. It's having heavy armor while riding a horse and not having accuracy deterrents.
