Surely they should be read as 'not set in concrete' but to be kept in mind when carrying out different parts of the gameplay.

Basic things to consider when deploying, advancing, engaging, retreating etc.

I think these are good things to focus on:

Monitor your allies and keep your army nearby your allies.
Monitor your allies and assist, not only when he's doubled by 32 units, but also when he is attacked by two units controlled by two opponents (that could be just a defensive move to protect one of his flanks).
Don't move too much, as you don't want to provoke a response.
Don't move too little, you need more than one spearunit to block 4 JHC.


Throw all of the above overboard when you are ready for it.
Again, this is advice not said as...must do.




Players read situations in different ways. A lot depends on the individual player. Some people react quicker than others, some 'see' what is happening better/quicker than others. A lot depends on the individual skills of players otherwise there would not be any reason for the game. There would be no 'winners' or 'losers'
