Dakara Posted December 25, 2021 Share Posted December 25, 2021 Hello, Sword, ram, elephant or women if ram not protected but little dammage. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dizaka Posted December 25, 2021 Share Posted December 25, 2021 Add spearmen to Dakara's list. Also, can use formations to block ram movement using stand ground + line. Works with troops that might have issues dealing damage like skrimishers/pikemen. Another option is surrounding with pikemen + stand ground. Will block ram. Can wait unit Sword/ram/ele/women arrive to finish off. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yekaterina Posted December 26, 2021 Share Posted December 26, 2021 Don't underestimate the power of slingers against rams. If you are Macedonians, make spear cavalry or any champion If you are Ptolemies, make mercenary swordsman. If you can't, then block ram with pikes, send in women and make slingers shoot at the ram. If you are anything else, make spear or sword. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Silier Posted December 26, 2021 Share Posted December 26, 2021 siege catapults also work if you manage to hit the ram with them 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thephilosopher Posted February 11, 2022 Share Posted February 11, 2022 (edited) Like others said, women are commonly overlooked as an anti-ram unit and can be really seful. Especially since lots of players try to send in sneaky rams without protection. As a bonus, if you're playing the Spartans, women have an extra hit point and basically function like low-end swordsmen. They can be used as either anti-siege or anti-cav in a pinch.
