A gaming community free from the hype and oversaturation of current releases, catering to gamers who wait at least 12 months after release to play a game. Whether it's price, waiting for bugs/issues to be patched, DLC to be released, don't meet the system requirements, or just haven't had the time to keep up with the latest releases.

Doing the tournaments is a good way to practice combat.
Actually I'm half decent at one on one and the small melees. But once it's a 'real' fight I get so sweaty palmed lol
Maybe I should try a console controller instead of mouse & kb?
I never tried it with a controller it seems like that would make it harder to manage your army. As for the bigger fights I usually try to get my army positioned first with my archers on a hill or across a river or something from them and then put my infantry in front of the archers to block them. Then I lead my Calvary to go provoke the enemy to come at them. Usually that works pretty well or at least lets me put a big dent in their calvary which gives you a decent advantage when they don't have one because you can get behind them and wreck their archers.
This strategy works most of the time with minimal casualties
Okay I'll give a shot! Thanks
