    Default How to properly used poorly equipped skirmishers?

    With their just 10 meters better range, and less men per unit... I think I have no real reason for training them... but with tight money, the light infantry are often the only one I can train in desperate situations. So how to effectively used them?

    place them just behind your line, so they use their better accuracy to kill off the enemy while you militia and line infantry do the dying.
    works nicely.

    Use them as movable meatshields to cover your more precious units, set them in loose formation, and let your enemy waste their ammo on yours (turn limited ammo on, or this tactics are useless)

    It is the default setting. Better question is how to set it off.
