i think some of us are expecting our vetrans to behave like previous TW games were high exp meant thay had high defense values and consequently took very little casualties against green opponents. but in this edition they wear very little armour and you cant dodge a bullet no matter how much exp u have. so in a shoot out even against militia they wiill only suffer less casualties because they will be inflicting casulaties faster than before (with better accuracy). the only area where you will seea big difference is in melee.

one strategy that i try to use to get kills with less casualties is shooting them while they are moving. i'm sure everyones noticed that units cannot shoot while they are moving. of course only good skimishers can do this line infantry is there basically to slug it out unitl onge group routs thats what the warfare was like in this time and i think it was one of the main agumenats in the past of making a TW game in this time period.
