    In battle, when the lines are locked, try taking a family member and his chariots for a ride behind the enemy, throwing javelins at their back. The added morale damage caused by chariots should make the enemy rout pretty easily. The only time when you should use chariots in melee is when chasing routing units.

Is this a bug of some sort or am I doing something wrong?
    He's saying he wants a bigger city to rule over. The trait itself is pretty harmless, so ignoring it won't do much damage.

    I love it how people nowadays are afraid of the EB teams answer and always apologise in advance.

    Edit: Oh, and what do I do with surplus family members? I give them a small taskforce, with which to screen a bigger army. That taskforce always moves next to the army so if either is attacked, the other will come to aid. Then, if the reinforcing army is the smaller force, I put it on AI control. That way the FM will gain command traits much faster than in manual control. I don't know why, but autoresolve and AI control gives out more traits to the leader.
