Hi. Just bought the game monday evening. Not regreting it, the strategic campaign game is excellent.

But there is a point I have difficulties with : tactical combat. I mean, I'm a veteran of Shogun & Medieval TotalWar, and I'm used to exploit each small bonus available. My question is, outside "obvious" bonuses(as lancers vs cavalry), what bonuses are implemented?
_Flanking bonus? Morale bonus when flanks protected?
_heigth difference, for both archers & troops?
_charge bonus?

Thx in advance!

There's a plus in morale (and I think a drop in enemy morale) for a charge.

I don't know about general attkac/defense bonuses for higher ground, but I DO know that archers are more accurate whilst atop a hill.

I don't think there's a morale bonuse for having your flank protected, but I would expect a morale drop from being flanked by the enemy.

OK, many thanks. I guess my problems come from the battle speed, then, TW is somewhat slower(and you can a "flat" view with a better overview)..... I have to get an habit on this.

You can adjust the gamespeed with the + and - keys on your numpad.
Check the minimap once in a while to follow enemy movement. :go:
