As long as your enemy is not too strong and you aren't somehow outmaneuvered, it should be an easy battles as the enemy will be running away at first so that they can get into a proper formation. It does not really matter what troops you use and what specific unit you choose to attack, unless your choice is obviously suicidal, such as sending off a unit of peasants against some Spartan Hoplites.

Have your men charge the enemy that is in a direct straight line in front of them. Before starting, organizing your troops into a single line formation with Shift+1 so that you are facing the enemies unprotected side. Sometimes the ambush will not work and the enemy will be able to prepare their men before the fight, but if your troops pull it off successfully, you can take as much time as you want to organize while your enemy automatically start out the battle in a vulnerable column formation. Your troops will automatically spring the trap during the enemy's turn when their army passes your hiding one.

Otherwise, there will be no ambush and your bait is hopeless.). You can use something as bait to ensure they travel that path, such as a single weak unit that you don't want to involve in the fight, or an important family member with no reinforcements (make sure the enemy will not travel a different path to reach your bait.

If you can pull off a successful ambush, you can destroy an entire army with only a fraction of the men the enemy has. ) then I switched to M2 in 2008-2009, I switched them constantly but since ~november I play only Medieval2 Oh yeah, I only played vanilla for both games (retrofit for M2 but it's vanilla with fixes + all the units from Kingdoms expansion) I played both of them, first Rome in 2007 (I think. you've been allied for, let's say, 100 turns with them and they suddenly betray you just because you left a city poor garisonedĪnd back OT, it really depends, in fact it's a matter of tastes if you post this question in the Medieval2 Total war general discussion they will say M2 is better, if you post it here you get answers such as Stingray970's I've had consistently better diplomacy in M2 (which matters a lot to me), and the AI is reasonably competent, particularly in comparison to Rome's AI.uhmmm, Medieval2 diplomacy is up too you know. Better in terms of what? That said, I prefer Rome M2 isn't bad by any means, but the combat isn't as smooth as I'm used to from EB.
