Thinking of uninstalling the patch!

It's not only the pursuers that scatter all over the place, the pursued do too.
I've had several incidents post-patch where a routing unit has left the field yet the pursuers are still trying to get at them, the reason being that an individual of that unit is still on the field and a considerable distance away too, - on one occasion stuck behind a ladder - but he doesn't have a banner or marker on the radar to show he's there, and with this seasons relatively drab outfits he's rather difficult to spot.
Oddly one routing unit came back on the pitch and only when I killed them all did a banner pop up above the individual, about 400m away. May be a partial explanation for the behavior of some pursuers. I remember having similar trouble with stray individuals after installing DarthMod in RTW.

That particular issue cropped up back in RTW. The game tried to put the center of the pursuing unit in the center of the running unit. If the running unit was scattered, by terrain or knockdowns or whatever, there would be a gap, and the pursuing unit would sit happily in the gap, never dropping back to pick off the stragglers or catching up to the lead units.

As to the Benny Hill them song, I know the title, but if I just asked where I could download Yakety Sax I don't think many people would understand the reference. Everyone who's ever seen an episode knows exactly what I'm talking about at the end credits.

Unit cohesion is horrible. It was SO good in Rome. I mean, I remember in Rome being able to form amazing army formations of gaps and holes to trap units and flank..

But in Medieval, I can barely hold my guys together to do any kind of honest to god manuvering.

It just becomes one big melee with every unit smashing in the center while my calvalry and archers TRY and move around!

Unit cohesion is definitely wonky. I've had a case where I was chasing an enemy infantry unit and it got killed down to 2 men who were 1/2 a map's edge distance apart! My light cav got confused and kept expanding and contracting, not catching either one of them.

You know, after playing for a while now, and loading a couple mods to help things along, this game is so close to being really good but it just annoys the hell out of me so that I almost hate playing it. At this point I just wish CA would ignore any other small issues and just fix unit cohesion, cav charging (which still sucks big time), and pathing in cities. Everything else would be easy to live with if these things worked right.

So he trading in hemp you say?

Agreed.

What mods are you using?

Personally, the 2H and Towers fix as well as the 'Ultimate AI' mod for me.

I think I liked Shaba Wangy's mod more though.. in a test between the two, I can't figure out the better.
