Revised Attack Bonuses - Age of Kings Heaven Forums

cliffs: mounted units get raped by halberdiers
ships get raped by bombard cannons
skirmishers & huskarls have an attack bonus vs archers
siege gets killed by siege & eagle warriors & mangudai
all infantry die to jaguar warriors, cataphracts, & hand cannoneers
unique units are countered by samurai

Samurai even beat Teutonic knights?

I'll try simulating it later. according to the wiki, samurai aren't cost effective against Teutonic knights, cataphracts, or war elephants.

there are some weird cases like samurai vs jaguar warriors, where they get a bonus vs each other. not sure who wins that.

edit: samurai wins.

okay, whoever wrote the wiki is full of ****, japanese elite samurai beat teutonic knights 1v1, and they also beat elite war elephants 4v1 which is better than cost effective. The only thing they don't beat is elite cataphracts, which get armor against bonus damage (and negates the samurai attack bonus)

Thats very interesting, I never realized the samurai were that strong.

thanks Mr. Wiki
