The starting position of Parthia is extremely difficult.
Parthia is riders' country.
It has both great cavalry as well as excellent archers.
Unfortunately these are very expensive units and Parthia is poor country.
Parthian swordsmen
Shock infantry with good attack and average defense.
It is very effective during clashes with enemy light infantry.
Parthian foot archers
Excellent archers with high damage.
Parthian archers inflict highest damage of all projectile units.
Camel spearmen
Light cavalry used to trample skirmishers and other enemy projectile units and to flank enemy cavalry.
Eastern cataphracts
Heavily armored cavalry capable to trample infantry units.
Thanks to huge resistance to hits cataphracts can defeat enemy cavalry and then attack the enemy from the flank.
Parthian horse archers
Very mobile horse archers, capable to shoot while moving.
They inflict high damage, quickly decimating enemy army.
Their disadvantage is very low resistance to fire and melee fight.
Those units should be mainly used to destroy missile infantry.
Indian war elephants
A unit used to break enemy ranks and crush its heavy infantry.
Once they make a breakthrough in the enemy army, you’re able to attack with heavy cavalry.
