Am I too mentally deficient to win battles in this game? (Quasi-Rant half asleep will regret this post in the morning)

I'd love to get into this game but I believe I have some form of unchecked retardation that prevents me from winning any battles that I personally oversee even if I have a distinct advantage. I'll try and post videos tomorrow but I lost around 10 full-morale infantrymen in a proper formation to 15 looters (Not bandits, looters) on the easiest difficulty. Every time I've tried cavalry charges they all instantly die to swordmen which isn't how it's supposed to go, I'm sure you could get a random person off of the street who's never heard of an RTS game before in their entire life and could win any scenario that I've lost and I can only really possibly attribute it to me just being intrinsically not intelligent enough to actually play this game.

I've tried a few massive battles (500 people on each side) in the custom battle mode where I used proper formations and that would work against the enemy and somehow lost to infantrymen that only charged forward and slaughtered everyone.

TL;DR Am I a beginner or actually too stupid for this game
