Reinforcements

[The Stranger]

o that was why i almost lost that battle i was fighting 40 units nstead of 20
i already tought that it was weird that they had so many units on the field
all the three reinforcement armies on the field at once

I had a problem with rainforcements with less than 20 units. They appeared in the corner of the map and in the stack as greyed (as normal) but... that's all. There was a farm in that corner and maybe that stoped them but IT IS A BUG for sure. It happened to me before I instaled 1.1 patch...

I've been thinking about using a strategy of 2 stacks of 10 units. (One stack with General or none.)

Using the two stacks of half size, one stacks maneuvers behind the enemy stack allowing the other to attack the stack from behind.

If you do this right, you can get battles where you have your guys boxing in the enemy.

Could be especially useful against cav armies - they can't run away.

I know the AI sometimes comes at me like this and it's tough to defend against two front at once.

This would also bring some "strategic" maneuver into the game.

You could even have 3 stacks of 10 units...might help when the AI gets those secondary attacks after the patch.
