The player in this case would be commanding the black figures, fighting the white figures. In the pictures shown below, I used chess figures (yes, I couldnвЂ™t find any good realistic illustrations of cavalry or infantry) to demonstrate the tactic in theory. If they do turn around to face you, the Infantry will take them out, at which point they are basically fully encircled, meaning there is no way for them to block any attacks, and you turn the battle into a bloodbath. The cavalry will engage from the sides AND back while the enemy is distracted running towards your Infantry, which means they are easy pickings. In case the enemy also try to flank, you take the opposite flank for a more effective charge.

The Cavalry (you), being the main force of the army goes out onto one of the flanks (always opposite to where the enemy is, if they decide to spread out), and charge from the sides. The main gist of it is, you send your Infantry in to charge head on, which should also make the enemy charge head on. You will also need atleast 10-15 infantry troops, these will basically act as meatshields / bait, however they arenвЂ™t supposed to die, they are supposed to get the enemyвЂ™s attention. This strategy, heavily вЂ“ or I should rather say only вЂ“ relies on Cavalry. For a main weapon I recommend something like the Khergit Long Sabre, it will absolutely cut through anything, but this is mostly personal prefrence. For this I can recommend the Steppe Charger, a very good balance between Armor, Speed and Manouverability. You as the commander who will be leading the Cavalry charge, should be equipped with a fast horse. You can obviously use Swadian Knights too, but they will take quite a long amount of time to train, and you need a lot of Cavalry for this, so I wouldnвЂ™t recommend.ДЄfter you get yourself a sizeable force of any of these (they can be combined as well) Lancers, Mamelukes, Horse Archers, or just normal Horsemen, you are basically ready. Of course, this strategy relies on 60-80% of your army being Cavalry, so youвЂ™d optimally be using Khergits or Sarranids for this, who can be trained to be horsemen quickly and effectively. You will learn how you can defeat significantly larger armies than yours, with some simple cavalry tactics!

No I'm not being paid by Produno but I wish I was.This guide will basically make you Ghengis Khan, destroyer of worlds, and conqueror of Calradia. While ACOK gives you the ability to recruit from the main cast of characters, which makes very little sense in terms of story, AWOIAF has original, interesting companions.ДЄWOIAF has a far more detailed and thought out Essos, whilst in ACOK it's practically nothing.ДЄWOIAF has more scenes, and explorable areas.ДЄWOIAF has better armor meshes and textures, and more varied.ДЄWOIAF also has Valyrian steel swords that actually do something whilst in ACOK they barely make a difference. The only thing ACOK has over AWOIAF right now is the Naval combat, which is fairly minor, especially since ACOK strips VCs coastal assault mechanic.ДЄWOIAF has more lords, more detailed factions, with more lords from the books, and even has the lords from Telltales GoT game.ДЄWOIAF has better companions, and more immersive.

I suppose I should give some more detail. It's far far far far more polished, and has better troop trees.
