How to deal with Hussars
In my last game of Hussars 3, all players amassed Hussars and just a-move them at my pikemen, cossacks, strelets, musketeers, and grenadiers, and my whole army dies.

How do you stop them? Dragoons?

Produce more hussars or you can use cuirassiers, they are ultra powerful. You can use howitzers to do massive kills, also you can use powerful musketeers formed in square. The ultimate solution is to build a wall.

Use Multibarrel-Cannons.

They are useless because of hussars' speed...

Raiding(building tons of hussars and fall in the enemys city)is a bad noob tactic in my eyes and verry op.

You are only able to encounter this by building walls, better/more hussars.

Another way is to place verry mutch pikes as guard in your city.

The French king musketeers are also verry effective to counter hussars.

To counter them with good musketeers is not longer a option because with the last update most of the powerfull units got verry weak now.

So at all with the last update its still easier to raid ^^

Not if you put them straight up in front of your army. Just take note, they don't shoot if ANY friendly unit is infront of them, you have to spread them a bit and put your men ons stand ground if you can.

Sorry did not mean to imply you don't know anything, I just found it quite a revelation a few days back -.-

When the noobs send their people, they're not sending their best. They're bringing Serdiuks. They're bringing Musketeers. They're Hussars. And some, I assume, are good people.

They most often also bring immigrant cannons with which to break your wall, which is just unacceptable.

We're going to have the biggest and best Army, it will be yuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuge, you'll never see anything like it again.

I hate that aswell..every mp game i it's the same.. some player ammasing hussars and then killing all my peasants..i countered them in one game with a massive army of fully upgraded musketeers. but they are so fast it's a joke you can't stop them killing all your peasants

You're half right there. If the oponent attack charges his hussars you should put some pikemen infront of your multi-barreled cannons on stand ground as they are resistant to grapeshot damage.

I have made a video demonstrating this, not many people use multi-barreled cannons but they are very tactical, 10 of them and a few pikemen is enough to stop a huge hussar charge.
