What difficulty are you playing on?

maxing out, I mean 20 units, I guess I should have phrased that different. With my infantry, or just triarii since the other units don't seem to come out of a fight them alive by any acceptable degree, they'll fight down to.... 5 or so was probably the highest with just infantry. If you pin them into a triangle and then a calvary charge to the back, 10 or so, but unless you stay on them they tend to go a little ways and come back ready to fight till you charge them again with supporting infantry about to engage them.

I've never been interested by the VH battles.

orwell: you mean the whole stack triarii and cavalry?

Any unit will do, I've won battles with just peasants on Crete? since my army was too far out to sea to get there in time. Though, I'm beginning to think about a Triarii only army to deal with that damned Syracruse. Siege battles that aren't in a bare barbarian village I always find are a pain to fight.

In vanilla, and XGM I played VH/VH. So far I had to restart my campain with the Aedui and put the difficulty on VH/M, hopefully I'll get the hang of of EB soon.

one question thought. Where can I swich off fatigue??? The AI doesn't know how to manage this feature well and has its army running around too much.

Should be able to if you press escape from the campaign map view. Or, there hsould be a file in your EB folder called preferences.txt or something like that. Open it, change FATIGUE:TRUE to FALSE. Then save it. Back it up first though, just in case you get something wrong.

People who can be succesfull in this mod on vh/vh get my respect, I've lost a a couple campains on vh/m, one Getai one late in the game around 220 when Rome rolled over me.

Depends on what faction really. Hearing from everyone saying that the Ptolemaic Kleruchoi Agemata is overpowered, I think that a Ptolemaic campaign shouldn't be difficult, given that, their initial size, and the riches flowing through the Nile.
