Most people playing EEII on-line tend to put light infantries in front of light artilleries. So what is your strategy like? I usually use the strategy I mention above. But I sometimes put Royal elephants(Egyptian unique units) in front of light arty instead. In Mediterranean map I put catapults behind walls for defending. If the other player prefer to use heavy arty I just set my army's formation to staggered line.

nice, i dont really use the formations but in epoch 5 I pick the crossbows and light artillery. I keep my crossbow men in front of the artillery so they recieve damage while my artillery destroys them. Epoch 6 I usually just go for chinese cannon, mayan cannon or if Im gonna rush someone british horses.
In EE i used to use some really complicated strategies but when EE2 came out with no balances they kinda went out window. This wasnt a complicated one but I used to love when my main army was fighting and I would use my calvary unit to come from behind the enemy and take out their artillery.

I tend to keep my formations as follows:
Melee (Heavy) Infantry/Cavalry units up front Ranged (Light) Infantry/Cavalry falling behind Artillery weapons at the back
This means if my enemy doesn't micromanage all that much, the front of his attacking force is grinded by all 3 types of units, which will rip them to shreds. A balanced army is always better than a similiar size force of a single unit type. I proved that against 2 simultaneous Spahi attacks, where my army was in total smaller.

Hey people, I'm back and with a new computer! Here's a simple rule or tip: XBows>Balista+XBows>H.Mounted+XBows>XBows. If you don't believe me, I'm more then willing to show you.
This refers to epoch 5-5, fast AND medium pace.

My main strat for defense in plane and nuke epochs 1)Surrond base with AA guns and moible AA guns. 2) make a lot of outpost. 3) Make a lot of fighters. Atack: Make lots of minigunners with heavey artillarty in back and sorrunded with Moible AA and fighters.

Oh it's simple. Click the link and in the first page scroll down and you will see 2 options for download- 'Premium' and 'Free'. Obviously, press free. After that you have to stand in line- usualy for 20-40 seconds. After that it will show you a few letters in an image, just right those letters in the little box that apears next to the image. Click download and after a few seconds the download will start. If you have any problems just say.
