So, I end up loading into a fight after reading the Auto Resolve where it says that the battle location takes place in the "Plains" as well as looking visually at where im located on the map with not a single tree in sight around me, and then i get a marsh surrounded by trees. Begs another question, if I would have auto resolved, would it have auto'd on that map I loaded into or would it have auto'd with a Plains modifier to cavalry/horse archer troops? submitted by /u/tjburke93123 [link] [comments]
So hold on a moment. There is a separate formation for Horse Archers from Calvary. But there isn’t a separate formation for Spearmen and Shock Troops?
Because I would argue that you would want a separate formation for those from the usual infantry. Since Shock Troops don’t have shields it would be much easier to micromanage their approach to improve their survivability. Why can’t I have a shield wall engage the enemy and have my Shock troops follow me behind the shield wall? That would be an amazing tactic.
Then there is the spearmen. Why can’t I have a separate formation for them so I can have them set a spear brace for Calvary approaching? There is not even a command to make them brace in the first place. Which is also frustrating that would be rather useful.
This is the main reason why I will never use these units. Because of the lack of ability to properly manage them separately from other infantry units. I shouldn’t have to jump through hoops to manage a clearly different unit from another.
There should’ve been a Spearmen and Shock troop formation.
