Suppose that I'm playing as Dravidians (horrible cav) and the enemy is going full xbow play. Considering that dravidians get extra wood on age up and have a decent discount on infantry upgrades, would it be reasonable to garrison longswordsmen (or urumis) on siege towers to chase down after archers?
If not, what else should I do? make my own xbows/eskirms? pike + mangonels (assuming opponent has decent kts)? go elephant archers?
What made me make this post was the Urumis, they deal massive damage to bunched up units (archers!) but they need a way to close the gap (siege tower!) or else they get demolished.
