Romans at a glance

This civ is versatile, with strength across Cavalry, Ranged and Infantry -- allowing flexible strategies that adapt to any opponent. Strong anti-cavalry defense with Halberdier to hold positions against cavalry pushes. Vulnerable to massed archers -- consider aggressive play before ranged compositions develop. An infantry ram push is the signature play -- use Halberdier as a meatshield to protect rams pushing into enemy bases.

Cavalry: Elite Centurion (Signature), Cavalier (Generic), Light Cavalry (Generic)

Ranged: Crossbowman (Bad), Heavy Cavalry Archer (Worst), Heavy Scorpion (Good), Elite Skirmisher (Bad)

Infantry: Legionary (Generic), Halberdier (Generic)
