New strategy idea: "genghis khan"

So this strategy would pretty much be the opposite of blitzkrieg. Genghis khan, during his conquest, would send a small group of troops to a giant army, then he would make them run over to where the mongols are prepared, and have a huge army. Because of this I came up with the idea of a strategy.

+2 range to infantry and tanks

+1 view range for infantry and tanks

+1 defense to all units

+1 hp to all units

-2 attack to all units

So yeah I think it would be fun to play with a strategy like that.

I dunno.. when I think of genghis khan, i dont think of tanks... If there were a strategy based around him, it would have to be buffs for basically only militia, and negatives everything else <<instert GW or Imperialist>>

But I honestly think that Imperialist would fit genghis khan to best..

Genghis khan's soldiers were all pros on horseback. In fact they were horse back archers. Hence why tanks.

It wasn't Genghis Khan!

Why does everyone hate on Subutai, the guy that actually got all the stuff done ;_;

Anyway, the Mongol armies were most famous for their feigned retreats (and then decimating the enemy with their light cavalry) or the use of slaves as human shields (literally).

But nevertheless, this basically seems like a buffed Great Combinator. For this reason, I think it would be too OP and not necessary. Furthermore, it probably isn't a good practice to base things off thousand-year old military science.

-2 attack.... Your kidding me right? This would be OP? It would make it useless unless you plan to make a scenario and just not attack anyone.

This seems, to me, more like you took a cross between Blitz and PD.

While the -2 attack makes it difficult to expand, the fact is that it's basically like a HUGELY buffed up PD. Meaning they'd never, ever lose on defense unless they were outnumbered crazily. With that in mind, all they'd have to do is hold out on defense (An easy task for them) with Militia and their opponent would go broke. Overtaking them after that would be extremely easy, even with reduced attack.

So yeah. OP is the correct term. They'd be invincibly defensive.

This is from April 2012. Why are you bumping this old thread? Please lock this thread!

Genghis Kahn didn't receive that name until he united all the tribes. Mongols were just 1 of 7 or so tribes. ALL AT THE AGE OF 14.
First to use Chemical Weapons. Same as our pepper spray but iv vats moved up wind of the battle. Bio-Weapons. When they came across Castles the would get the Black Plague bodies and Catapult them over the castle walls.
