Happy New Year to all. I'm a returning Total War player.
The Total War series is famous - nay notorious - for it's dual system of live action combat and the more cerebral campaign aspect. I'm restarting this game after a year or so (RomeTotal War, vanilla, playing as the Brutii) I have got so engrossed in the campaign I don't want to play out battles. I tend to autoresolve, which is risky sometimes, but I'm finding I don't wish to ruin my concentration on the whole picture.
How on earth do you get the balance? Do you prefer one more to the other? Which battles do you auto resolve? I find sieges can be a bit boring so I tend to auto resolve those in most games.
Maybe it's all a matter of skill with the game?
