Why am I bad in tactics?

[MoKus]

Thanks for your replies and tips. Here is another battle (iam playing as German): https://ufile.io/tkhpi. Here is the quick save file: https://ufile.io/eb4su. I managed to kill around 390 and lose around 420. Computer more or less score the same. It would be nice of you if you could play the battle an let me know your score. My general has three stars and enemy general has four stars.

I don't know how I can play YOUR battle. Perhaps it could be done by making it a custom battle, but it would take quite a time choosing units with appropriate valor and stuff. Right now all I have time for is watch and give advice.

As to the analysis of the battle. You were more active with your troops, but you failed to use your militias and cavalry while the spears were engaged. Archers never aimed at the general. And your shouldn't attack cavalry with ANYTHING but spears (or polearms). Other troops are for FLANKING the pinned cavalry and hitting it IN THE REAR. Try not to chase a single routing enemy with a whole unit and try to keep your army togehter, otherwise all units will be exterminated piecemeal.

If you want, I can send you some of my battles I saved. Those are mainly historic battles and historic campaings. And tons of quick battles.

You need to unzip and save it in savegames directory. You then can load it . Thanks for tips.

I did it. But I can only WATCH it, not PLAY it.

How about this one? https://ufile.io/7ucne Perhaps I upload a wrong file.

Personally, I would never attack (willingly) with such shitty units (despite the overwhelming numbers). I would rather wait and get serious units instead, and then attack. Better battles that way... Anyhow, my result (not being particularly careful. AND using your old file)...

Kills: 475
Captured: 50+ (I don't remember)
Losses: 220
Paused: 0

That is fantastic. Could you please upload your replay so can see what you are doing?

Axalon knows how to download it and then play it. I don't. I did what you said, but I can't see it in the list of saved battles. Even if I did, I wouldn't be able to play it. Perhaps it should be placed to a different folder. And it is not a vrp file when unzipped.

Yes, that is not a vrp format. It is dat format which is for saved game so you need to copy the unziped file into savegames directory. It would be nice of you to upload your replay so I can see how do you play. It appears as "last quicksave" where you load your saved game. Thanks anyway.
