Confident of winning with this army - which one's yours?

[FierceKitty]

Following the survey of armies you expect to lose with, which ones do you start a battle with in reasonable hopes of victory?

Mine would be either 17th century Poles, which can usually dominate the cavalry action and have enough good infantry to be a match for the enemy foot until the horse turn their flank, or ancient Iberians, who usually outscout the opposition and pack a hell of a punch in the charge.

[Leman]

None.

[Ithoriel]

In every solo game I am confident of leading an army to victory

[Leman]

Knowing me it would be a draw.

[Duke Speedy of Leighton]

Mapuche

[Leman]

What the 'eck  is that? Or have you got hayfever?

[Fenton]

None.

That's the army I use as well

[FierceKitty]

These appear popular, then.

I think I could win with this one (particularly if the air arm is included):

But Pendraken hasn't made the figures yet

You've had it if there's rain! I also note there are enemy agents in your ranks.

Actually they are recent converts to "The Cause". The rain, I think, is a threat only to thier command piece.

Mapuche, only integrated into Chilie in 1883, when someone brought along machine guns! They famously met the conquistadors for the first time in battle, lost, next time, they adopted pikes, stole firearms, taught themselves how to use lances on stolen horses, adopted cannibalism after they found the Spanish were afraid of them, burned Valperaso and various other Spanish settlement, repeatedly, and kept their independence while the rest of native South America rolled over. They beat the Incas in a four day battle and wiped out the Spanish armies, twice!

One that usually did well from r me was Great Northern War Swedes, as long as I could stop the cavalry charguing before I wanted them to do so. My forces did usually include some Tremanning units as well as more regular infantry. We used the GåPå rules.
