How to beatByzantineas Macedonian

Matchup tips

Cataphracts definitely deal with a lot of units that Macedonian could potentially make, but it's not part of that composition. I'm a little bit worried about this. Usually with those cataphracts, you either want to be raiding or you want them to stomp on a bunch of ranged ones, especially get to the back line if there's anything blocking you. But this is still a pretty hard thing to do when there's a bunch of spears in this mix.
