For me there's always a sort of "uncertainty" when engaging against enemy units, especially if I'm not using level 60+ horses. :rolleyes: Obviously to get the most enjoyment out of the game it make sense to at least master several combat aspects. I'm trying to have my mercenary go 100% and full level on horses, elephants, swords and halberds. Too bad I literally get killed with several blows when I use halberds. Why? They're on a much lower level than my horses and elephants. So the only way to get them levelled up in a harsh world, is: 1. follow allies who use horses. They are a real boon when you are tussling with the opponent and then your Knight/lancer friends knock them down, giving you a breathing space. I had one time when they stole my kill, but better that than dying. Horses also are able to scatter enemy units in chaos, unlike most infantry. This helps the halberds' offensive capability. 2. Offensive/defensive Pennons don't help if all your units are dead. Phoenix Ashes me, please. 3. Is it just me, or do I always find myself relying a lot more on the recruits I hire at the Tavern as opposed to switching in between teams in-game? It's probably one reason why I'm not good at so many other Books. However, say you recently acquired elephants, it's always good to bring some teams along to level them up, because sometimes you don't see any elephants in-game until you take over a base or something.
