which army are you talking about? like Atilla the Hun? The Hunnic people were a nomadic horse people from the Asiatic steppes. They didn't have a style, they shot arrows at you from horses until they got close enough to kill you with a club or sword. Also, the huns were spread throughout the steppe, they weren't under the exclusive control of Atilla until he forced them. If this is not who you are talking about, please specify exactly who in the world you are speaking of.

He who knows others is wise. He who knows himself is enlightened.

He just used his own tatics, no martial arts.

Well dose any1 now if he used a style for his army at all or what was it. :-?

PEACE :karate: :kaioken: :D :)

No martial arts style, the big thing for the Huns was the invention of the stirrup. This allowed a rider to not have to grab the mane to hold on, and thus freed up both hands.

This allowed the Huns to shoot their bows from horseback, which was an incredible advantage. They rode around their enemies just shooting them with arrows.

Actually many mongols used tatics from temujin, however many of temujins tatics were from ONG Khan in his earlier years. However they did use similar tatics to the huns and respected tham quite alot, however contrary to popular belief they usually used less violent ways unless insulted. O yea, and before the mongol clan united the steppes temujin and jamuka created alot of tatics for their own basic warefare until they ran into more fortified nations such a china, poland, georgia, turks, and had to develop tatics for their invasions of japan. So yea, mongolia from my knowledge had a better understanding of siege warefar, intimidation, and horseback riding since each kid would be able to stand on a steed runnig full speed when they were close to 6, But they lacked any naval strategy whatso ever, which is why japan massacerd them.

"they where just an army rite?"

Actually they conquered the world pretty much, and owned more land than any other country and even today( they pretty much had all of asia, including northern china). They would have beaten europe however temujin(genghis Khan) wanted to destroy india, and that resulted to his death in 1227 from illness. O yea, they had a capital laws agaisnt slavery and were very cililized compared to other countries of the world, and genghis khan did most of it with less than 100 thousand men.
