Get a dozen men-at-arms or knights and you can just sit back and watch while they win. And it isn't just in battles in the field, either. They're fantastic in sieges, both ways, as well.
I like the Rhodoks because they are a damned challenge. Of all the factions I'd have to say they're the hardest to use, so it makes victory all the more refreshing. Plus the whole democratic-peasant thing appeals to my inner romanticist.

Well yeah the knights and men at arms are by far the best units but I was trying to bring ALL the units from my faction into account. I'm actually suprised that so many liked the Sarranids. Mostly because they're a new faction and I figured everyone would stick with their old favorites. They're really cool though and Taleworlds did a great job making them. They most certainly manage to stay unique from the Khergit in my opinion. Those Mamlukes are quite a challenge to top it off. It doesn't fit Classic Arabian tactics back in those days however. Their Calvalry was more like the Khergits Horseman on a whole. I can't wait to fight them after I conquer most of the other factions they're duking it out with the Khergit and if they manage to conquer them and become more powerful when we war it will be very reminiscent of the Crusades minus all the whole Holy war thing.
