My elites still hold their ground against enemy units and a well placed cavalry charge routes almost anyone. It's very anoying playing against lots of archers and god forbid HA!

The point i want to make is that i would like to play the game on VH/M but i'm afraid it will be far to easy... And the general cam doesn't attract me since the units do incredibly stupid things unless you have an eye on them...

Any advice?
Nah... VH/M is ok..

It's just that if you want to be Alexander or Hanibal you could try VH/VH

On Alex.exe do, VH/M is the same as VH/VH and VH/VH on ALX.exe is as 2 times harder then Vanilla EB (RTW.exe based) on VH/VH - but that main advance is not because of the battle - but the Campaign difficulty - because AI is retraining troops and grouping all the time
