    I think it was a 2-1 disadvantage at Pharsallus, but you're probably right - the longer Caesar waited, the more likely more Pompeiian troops would show up. -M

    Other question about withdraw: why comp can withdraw and dont suffer any losess, but when I withdraw I always suffer heavy casualties; this fact prevent possibilty of using skirmisher armies-ambush, attack with javelins and ( using their speed) withdraw; at this moment If U will do this , U will suffer heavy casualties or Ur army will be destroyed if in enemy territory. Second case is withdraw on campaign map; cavalry armies or skirmisher armies should be faster-be able to withdraw further. And why always withdrawin army on enemy territory is destroyed?
    Spartans do not ask:how many? but:where they are?"

    they are only destroyed when they are deep in enemy territory- you don'T border the region youre fighting in(or have a ship within grasp).
    in this case they simply don't know where to run and give up :(
