>>1270927cataphracts are like mini-paladins, only pikes really work vs them
i think if both are massed, cataphracts beat paladins cause they do a bit splash damage.
build some pikes to defend against enemy pikes and to counter his cav, mass paladins otherwise
also a squad of hussars is great vs scorpions, you can scout them out and hit-and-run before he reaches your base.
