Prince of Macedon
A popular (on youtube) RTW player, and was the host of many popular RTW online tournaments. Under the patronage of Hader.
Prince of Macedon
The Prince of Macedon is a Phillipono gamer, who has recently migrated to the United States in order to further his gaming career. Prior to his arrival he'd only have acsess to a computer on a bi-weekly basis, whereby he'd have to dance naked and pray to Allah infront of the village shamans per hour of usage. As prince originates from a small isolated village with huts, incest and witchcraft, he often finds it difficult to communicate within western civilisation.
For example, many of his loyal subscribers will ask questions, or compliment him, and he'll often be extremly rude or fllipant. However, he is currently undergoing counciling for his lack of social ability, which is also a bi-product of his obsessive gaming addiction.
Prince likes to use Pikeman in the phalanx formation, as the sight of large poles, with the potential for anal pentertarion fufill sick desires lurking within him.
As his pseudonym may have you think, he has a strange obsession with The Prince Of Macedon, Alexander the Great, whom he buys books off, and touches himself during the gay scenes of Oliver Stones film, "Alexander"
Prince likes to use collum formation, and smash up the enemy rear with his thick frontage. Some say this is a metaphor for his inner turmoil

Attack is best defence
You can see that Prince of Macedon is an aggressive player and this has several advantages:
He can force you to respond to him and not the other way around.
He can attack when he is ready.
The enemy player is more likely to isolate his own cavalry making it easier for Prince of Macedons companions to crash in the enemy cavalry from all sides making them rout and massacre the enemy cav.
Counter messure
How do you counter this exellent tactic?
Maybe you should have more upgrades on your own cavalry and keeping them close to your infantry I suggest attack and experience upgrades.
While only upgrading gold defence for the infantry.
But it really depends on what factions to bring every faction in rome total war has diffrent strengths.
Dont have the infantry units deployed side by side sence that benifits fhalanx units not cohorts.
Launch your own offenssive and if your roman throw pila and then form testudo in guard mode and then march right through those spears.
Then the swordfighting skills of the roman infantry can be decisive as long as the cohorts aren't deployed side by side!
The cav fight is most important use some cohort support and dont forget to micro manage your cav.
The best faction to use against macedon at this level is probably the selucid empire. Companion cavalry cannot fight against cataphracts in a melee so it is a good idea to take a couple gold. Another effective use is that of what |TAoW|Ahille used. A skirmish army can be devestating against the macedonians.
