If I may, I need to vent about the combat in this game, because it sucks.
I just had an army of 45,000 men go up against an army of 16,000 and lose. Horribly. As in we lost nearly 30,000 and they lost about 5,000. Our generals were almost equal, and I could find no reason that terrain would be that much of a differential. This is fairly standard in my attempts to play this game. In that same attempt to play it I also had an army of 16,000 with a solid general go up against an AI army of 5,000 with no general. We lost 14,000. They lost 1,000. This is completely fucking ridiculous. I now remember why I unistalled it a long time ago, and will be doing so again, probably permanently.
