Aksum/Strategic Overview

From Warbirth Wiki

< Aksum

Aksum in Age of Empires relies mainly on 2 different sets of mercenaries - Africans and Arabs. Only 2 of 3 African units - Spearmen and Skirmishers - are available, but Aksum has access to all three Arab mercenaries - clubmen, foot skirmishers and camel skirmishers. This group is shared with both Egypt and Parthia, but Parthia can recruit only two - Arab Skirmishers, and Camel Skirmishers, while for Egypt there is just one. Aksum has almost no horse cavalry - its main cavalry units are chiefly elephants and camels, thus as a result Aksumite armies are often not very mobile on the march.
