    Default Can someone explin this to me, please.



    I have just started a new game as the Aedui (number 17 here we go!). In a desperate effort to expand into the Alpine regions in order to acquire some nice mines I decided to wittle down a Helvetian army using a collection of noble cavalry, veteran slingers and some levy spearman just in case I needed to run. I was surprised how well the plan worked and by a combination of slingers (who I dismissed once they had run out of ammo) and my noble cavalry seperating enemy units from their formation I managed to kill 73% of the enemy force for the loss of only 6% of my own army... and yet the Eleutheroi army won. Anyone else ever had this problem?

    Play with battle time limit off

    If u can't win in a stand up fight, run the enemy around, get them exhausted and let the slaughter commence

    Yeah the Time Limit is a pain in the arse thus i always turn it off! IMO i think its unrealistic since battles in the past sometimes lasted for hours :D

    About the Time Limit:

    Long and cautious sieges = Time limit is a disaster.

    Bugged AI battles where the enemy is supposed to attack you but doesn't. = You probably want it on, you might lose the battle because you were only able to win defensively.

    See I expected to win that one even though I didn't manage to cause a full route, once the casualty proportion bar cmae up with "victory is a distinct possibility" I thought I was certain to win. Ah well.
