I recently won as Western Empire on Very Difficult settings, and I am 
about the win as the Franks in that manner.

The key to beating the Hordes is a number of high-defense infantry and 
a ton of archers -- on a bridge.  The hordes bash against that again 
and again, and even if they eventually win through, they've 
significantly reduced their numbers.
Also, when under seige, I like provoking their general to chase one of 
my own cavalry units around the city walls.  About halfway around, the  
enemy general is dead due to fire from the city wall's towers.  I even 
once survived an attack on a city and was left with ONE soldier left, 
the general.  ONE guy.  No kidding.
I've got lots of stories like this.  Anyone else have good tales of RTW glory?
