I've played the Crusaders v the Ayyubid and the Ayyubid shoot and evade, shoot and evade. The trick is to get the knights into the Ayyubid foot before they're all busted up. That's hard to do.

Yes they have some infantry giving you a bit of a break from cavalry, but it plays largely a supporting role.<br /><br />If you found painting horses hard going with the Mongols then Ayyubids won't relieve that very much, but it seems your other choices have quite a bit of cavalry too so maybe that's not it. If your looking for colour then Ayyubid's would fit that bill nicely.<br /><br />Either way good luck on your new choice!<br /><br />Christopher<br /><br />Christopher(aka Axebreaker)https://www.blogger.com/profile/13205928451375232865noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3166240688056859219.post-88023628934821044182012-11-08T13:16:05.462-05:002012-11-08T13:16:05.462-05:00Your Mongol army was looking very nice!
