I c ppl takin bout archers etc on here, but i've not got the option to acquire these.

Scroll down in the unit list. The Auxiliary Archers should be down there.
I'd say you really need archers and/or Auxiliary Infantry, to complete the Roman Campaign on the Very Hard setting.

My solution was: Left flank (put on long hold) 1xAuxCav 1xLegionary 1xScout (held back in reserve, behind other 2 units) Aim of left flank is to kill enemy Cav, then the AuxCav & the Scout, rides around the main enemy army, and clears the enemy Archers ASAP Center: (Advance) 3xAuxInf 3xSkirm/Vel...

I generally upgrade my Scouts to Aux Cav as soon as funds allow. Scouts and Nobles really don't quite have the durability to face some of the tougher opponents as the campaign progresses. As for the Men in Black, I usually charge them with a unit of Aux Cav to inflict a few quick trample casualties...

So... how to manage it?? I usually manage to kill the MIBs, but then I am utterly weakened and fail to kill his Heavy Infs.. I have played through the Roman Campaign several times on Very Hard, and I manage to beat all the other scenario on this difficulty setting, save this one... My army: LEGATE L...

I’ve got no perfect approach. This is the best I can muster.. Army: 1xLegate 3xLegionnary or other LineInfs 2xAuxArchers 2xSkirms/Velites 1xAuxiliae 1xAuxCav 2xScout 2xMilitia/Peasant s I group my units in two halves. On the right flank: Legions, Archers, 1xSkirms On the left flank I put Auxilia in ...

First times I played the campaign, I scraped by the Latin Revolt scenario with low-level troops like Scouts, militias and the likes. It worked, but it was a pain.. Then I made sure to purchase a little more expensive units, and that worked out much better. Army: 1xLegate 1xMilitia 1xSkirms/Velites 2...

This is what worked out for me Army: 1xLegate 3xLegionnary 4xAuxArchers 3xSkirms/Velites 3xAuxiliae 1xAuxCav 1xScout Put up a battle line either on the left flank or the right flank, but not on the ridge. Form a battle line where your Legion/Line Infantry is screening your missile troops. Weaker uni...

The thing about Zama is the missile troops, imho This is what does the trick for me.. Army: 1xLegate 3xLegionnary 3xAuxArchers 2xSkirms/Velites 2xAuxiliae 1xAuxCav The 2xAux charges forward in the rugged terrain, to clear the enemy skirmishers. After that, their job is to fight until they break &...

Last post from Ian - who I suppose is a designer - was in October 2007.
Do we have any updated information on the sequel to Legion Arena. Would be great to have something to look forward to here!

I like the fact that units do not alway follow orders
Makes it kind of realistic in some sense

Also, I'd like to say that the multiplayer interface is GREAT! I've never encountered problems, when setting up a multiplayer game. You can't say that with too many games!!

Hello!
I am also interested in playing Legion Arena Online!
We are two players who regularly play, but we want to play with new people too!
PM me if you'd like to play!
Cheers Perry

I have found the Unit Stats in the Squads.txt file.
However, the structure of the file is a bit disorganized, which make it difficult to compare the different units in a quick manner.

Is a structured overview of the unit stats available somewhere else? Ingame, or on this site, for example?

Hi!
I am looking for a Scenario list for Legion Arena?
Anyone got written down the names of the scenarios, and the order in which they appear??

Hi - need some feedback on Rome Campaign, at VeryHard settings. For Heavy Inf, I have bought Triariis. I thought them to be more cost effective than Legionaries (650D instead of 800D). Now, I wonder if they will last the distance though...What's your thoughts? What's your choice for Heavy Inf at Ver...

Nice! Thanks a lot!

Hi

Are there any extra scenarios, mods from fans or the like, that is downloadable somewhere?
I head something of a Britain Campaign??
