    Does anyone try to lure cavalry into the line of spears?
    or does everyone just walk up to the enemy with archer units and shoot them to bits when the just stand there. (Well pre BI anyways)
    1. Not usually. Infantry keep marching in a line. I select individual units as and when..
    2. Nope. You can never say no to re-inforcements. They must engage.
    3. Of course. Especially against uber-strong infantry.
    4. Yes, almost always, but usually as part of a larger cavalry charge.
    5. Infantry, in this case spearmen, are there to engage forward threats. If that means Cav, then all the better.

    Archers are set on FAW, until they become a danger to my own units. Then they skirmish. Or rout.
