I've just started playing N-TW and am having some problems. Maybe somebody could give me some pointers? The main issue is that I find it impossible to give detailed orders to, move & position and monitor the progress of the fifteen or twenty units under my command. If I am defending, the battle scenario requires me to move into my defensive position but only after the battle has started. My enemy is already manoeuvring and invariably catches me not yet in place, in the wrong formations and unprepared.
If there is any wooded land, the locations of my troops are hidden from my view, the terrain where I want to take up defensive positions can not be scouted before the battle start so that I am aware of the most sensible positions for my formations and I am totally unaware of impassable terrain. This would not be the situation that any mildly competent historical general would tolerate and I'm wondering if there's anything I can do about it.
