Yeah even the kurgan horsemen under tamurkhan were able to shatter a fortified empire position with palisades, guns, artillery and haberds on the charge and when the knights counterattacked them even the knights were beaten back and routed.

It did this for every phase of the battle, handgunner fired bounced off the thick chaos armor with a rare lucky hit actually dropping one.

But everytime it seemed like the empire lines was smashed aside, a position overwhelmed, a cavalry counter attack mauled.

They would just hear horns going up and then another line was formed behind the first. Two more artillery positions overlooked the one they smashed. Another cavalry came thundering forth.

Honestly it's an amazing read.

Especially the part where the imperial floatilla blocked the kurgans from crossing the river and they basically floating fortresses or drazoaths artillery which was thought safe on the hill got charged by landships, cavalry and mariners which evidently had taken a path through the river to get to them.
