I was just wondering what formations people use when they attack or defend. Personally, I will almost always set up my infantry in the middle, alternating spears and non-spears. Archers or whatever else ranged in front of them (loose formation if there are any ranged units in the enemy army) and cavalry flanking all these jolly fellows. I would quiet like to know if anybody has any other ideas, and also if anyone ever uses those army formations you can use when setting your troops up for battle.
