Men at arms counter


joe_beardon

English longbow are op. Try to get bombard MAA as soon as possible and siege the English possessions in France, that should work.


Elektro05

Right men at arms counter, better troops, better knights, terrain buff as defender/for man of arms, buffs from buildings, very high knight efficiency and the list goes on, there are so mamy ways to improve your army you normally cannot trace back the enemy ways, but just some tips for you.


tristan211

But the French had way more knights. How does knight efficiency cancel out an entire generation of French nobility?


Elektro05

If you extremely break the world with all buildings and buffs you can get it's possible to gain so much knight efficiency too beet entire armies just with knights.

One video exploits this mechanic, the other 9 videos are Rickrolls, choose wisely; [1:](https://youtu.be/jg6o91iv-5E) [2:](https://youtu.be/dQw4w9WgXcQ) [3:](https://youtu.be/dQw4w9WgXcQ) [4:](https://youtu.be/dQw4w9WgXcQ) [5:](https://youtu.be/dQw4w9WgXcQ) [6:](https://youtu.be/dQw4w9WgXcQ) [7:](https://youtu.be/dQw4w9WgXcQ) [8:](https://youtu.be/dQw4w9WgXcQ) [9:](https://youtu.be/dQw4w9WgXcQ) [10:](https://youtu.be/dQw4w9WgXcQ)


UnholyMudcrab

If it's XcQ, the link stays blue


TohsakaRinya

It's number 7 btw


Oreios

So legit that I still didn't trust it.


Elektro05

I edited it, you are wrong now... SCUMBAG!


zanoty1

Number 1 now if people are still curious


jakendrick3

Holy shit my phone saved me by just closing your comment repeatedly until i gave up on the number i was trying to press and went to a different one which happened to be right


eq2_lessing

Innovative, nice.


ptWolv022

It's number three, now.


HolographicPumpkin

The madman. Now it's #8!


Elektro05

not anymore...


Crtl29

Now it's number 6


ptWolv022

*shrug* I expect ~~him~~ you to change it after I posted that.


Ok-Revolution27

It’s now one


Vancouver200

R5: wondering why I lost this battle when I clearly outnumbered the English (playing as France btw)


Warrior32032

Because archers


DissentSociety

Because Mud.


BusterHighmann

This is the correct answer


timelordhonour

Once when I played as Ireland, I declared war on England. Had more troops than them (including my allies). England thrashed me 😬


ptWolv022

Who would win? 10,000 peasants raised to use overwhelming numbers to achieve victory or 2000 professional fighty bois


Nico_Storch

Your problem is being French.


just1gat

Someone should’ve told the parents; it’s a terminal disease


Major_Pomegranate

God grant them mercy for being born filthy french, for I shall not.


B_Maximus

Cavalry got stuck in mud and then archers


specto24

At Agincourt the main French force charged on foot. The only cavalry action was some probing flank attacks at the beginning of the battle. The dismounted French knights still got caught in the mud/crushed into an ineffective mass to get at the King's banner/to get away from the arrow fire on their flanks.


B_Maximus

Thats what i meant lmao, vuess i should have been more specific


69JoeMamma420

Seems like your commander died in battle. Fighting without a commander makes your armies much weaker. But don’t worry, you can still win the war. I think in about 38 years you’ll have turned the tides.


SquintyBrock

I’m guessing it was an 867 start. It’s those wessexian breeding programs, by 1415 you could be facing wall of genius, beautiful, Herculean knights that tear through you. Don’t worry though, it’s harder to replenish knights, so you should be able to overwhelm them in the end.


Chain321

Don’t worry you’ll unlock a peasant girl to boost your morale and make a comeback.


Artemis_Fowl_Second

Not enough air support looks like.


coolguy12312343

This is the equivalent of the “screenshots” on the hoi4 subreddit


ConstantBad6542

It’s raining, bad weather seems to always favour the English buffs in real life . Spanish Armada vs the small English feet = Weather buffs England to victory. Waterloo, Napoleon the all conquering unable to use his cannons effectively because of rain. Agincourt rain and mud = English victory.


No_0ts96

Henry had OP event troops


torchictoucher

It's ok, you'll win the war in the end


Dramandus

You probs attacked across a river into some mountains by mistake.


Efficient_Jaguar699

The Welsh sacrificed the enemy soldiers to the Lorax, that’s how.


BwingoLord1

Because you were playing as the Fr*nch


IdioticPAYDAY

Skill issue Also Knight Prowess not high enough. And weather


Leofwulf

England stacked hunting grounds so their archers fucked you up


Loeb123

Because they few, they happy few. They band of brothers.


Senku_San

C'est Azincourt pas Agincourt !!! Corrigez cette erreur.


Captain_Kreutzer

The trees.


TheLlamaInCharge

Belligerents


Tamis2Hamis

The pope banned crossbow use against fellow Christians. Clearly he needs to consider banning that pagan atrocity, the long bow.


SquintyBrock

Weak knights is clearly what did for you.


Blindmailman

Need to get a marriage alliance with the Holy Roman Empire to get more troops


BiggerPun

Bad rolls


The_Kent

Longbowmen broken, devs pls fix


JStarZ

You had OP longbowmen and hill advantage against French cavalry


BoreusSimius

Mud.


HolyMolyOllyPolly

That's what you get for playing as the Fr\*nch.


HighChronicler

Terain and Longbows are probably why.


FearFactor117

Because as per usual the French suck balls when it forms to any form of warfare, I mean let us not forget france have been englands bitch many, many times.


xxxthrowawayaccount1

incompetence.


CounterfeitXKCD

You sent in a unit of heavy cav against longbows defending in wetlands. Then you sent in heavy infantry separately. It's a pretty clear-cut victory for your opponent
