Sometimes the game overestimates the power of a unit or underestimates the power of one. Use some units that the game engine things sucks against some guys that the game thinks should win. I find that Vigiles are underestimated by the game when estimating odds before battle. (Example: I once took a green general and two Vigiles [a city garrison] angainst something like 3 groups of lugoae and the prebattle odds were in their favor, I autocalced and my general got a command star.) Chariots are also overestimated, though they will be overestimated with autocalc aswell.
