Do you retrain?

When you have 90 provinces and 20 armies it's simply too much of a hassle to bother with those things. Easier to just send your full army home.

Exploit? If I had the ability to have bureaucrats fix all that shit for me, like the kings had, yes then it would be.

"No, and I play with alex.exe" got my vote

I consider retraining a cheat, so I just don't use it. But I do think that if the ai can benefit from it, it should be allowed to use it

It's too boring to have to create new units and merge them together.

And having to ship an entire army back to your homeland (who's replacing them in the meantime?) isn't?

It's not a crime to play the game the way you want to.

I retrain quite alot, and I use a replacement army/force to hold the ground if needed.

I have also seen many elite units loose chevrons when retrained, usually in poportion to the casualties!

Hi all!I retrain whenever it is possible.I know, its nit right to retrain on ALEX.EXE.But I play on VH/VH.And KI get a lot of bonus experiences with the battle.I play the Romancompany.In start Aedui, Scweboz and Arverni had war with each other.Now they are all my enemies.And I see all the time a lot of them with 3 silver Chevrons.The play slowly starts to be really difficult.

One Question:how I can reduce the KI-bonus. Which file use.

(Sorry for my English

)

You still have tosend out a whole stack load of units though to yours frontlines to merge and bolster your units. I prefer shipping my guys back, it also ensures I don't expand too quickly.
