Antirainbow tactics(special for cavalry and cataphract)

[Axas]

10k-30k archers, they'll wipe out the meatshield before they even get closed to the cataphract, Ca will continued moving forward the Ar eventually

Not sure of this. Defender archers gonna attack first attacker units in range and then they gonna attack the unit type which deal most dmg per round. I think in this case it gonna be pikemens, archers and the other units type(warriors and swordmens) will be wiped later. Cavalry/catas go straigh to the biggest threat, in this case, archers. Range units attack the first unit in range and then if they have the choice, they will attack the unit type which deal most dmg per round. The only effective rainbow against horsemen are horsemen, horsemen go straigh to the biggest threat.

First round:Ballistas of both side tackle each other, archers takle each other, Ca move forward, meatshield is being attacked by AT and some Tr with some Ar.

Second round:defending Ba, AT and Tr were destroyed( according to the numbers above), 70% of defending Ar was destroyed, 12%-20% of Ca was destroyed, attacking Cav completely destroyed along with 40% attacking Ba, 70-89%Ar destroyed, meatshield was wiped out.Ca was still moving

3rd round-25th round:Ca reached the Ba and Ar remained, all defending Ar wiped out, 10-19% remaining Ca wiped out, 10% of Ba destroyed, 80% of remaining Ar destroyed. About 3000-6000 Ba standing, 15000-20000 Ar standing, 65000 Ca still on fire. After some more rounds, Ca completely destroyed the Ba and Ar remained......remained troops are 50000-54000 Ca alive

60000 Ar
10000 Sw
20000 Ballista(Ba)
10000 Cavalry(Cav)

vs

85000 Ca
10000 Ar
5000 Ba
+
2000 Archer towers, 500 defendsive trebuchet

How the battle gonna happen from my knowledge.

Attackers: Ar/Ba attack Ca. Sw/Cav move forward.
Defenders: Ar/Ba/Ats attack Cav. Ca move forward.

Attackers: Ar/Ba attack Ca. Cav attack Ca(if they survived). Sw move forward.
Defenders: Ar/Ba/Ats attack Ar/Ba. Ca attack Cav if Cav survived or attack Ba.

Attackers: Ar/Sw attack Ca. Ba/Cav died.
Defenders: Ar/Ba/Ats/Ca attacks Ar

Atackers: Ar/Ba/Cav died. Sw attack Ca.
Defenders: Ar/Ba/Ats/Ca attack Sw.

Attackers: defeat
Defensers: winner

Take note theses step are not rounds.

Having too much catas is not good. Its better having 35k catas/ 65k archers because the biggest threat for attackers are the archers. This give the oppurtinity to your Catas to attack attackers units with less casualties because they are not the biggest threat. With archers being the biggest threat, attackers units spend more time to get in range. Instead of being attacked all the battle, catas could be only attacked when they was the only target in attackers range.
