At lunch today I decided to go home for lunch and try and succesfully defend my castle with the moors against the Milanese.

Two Armys they have:

Sieging Army is around 600+ Troops and the army sitting on the other side of my walls is 1700+ with two General Body Guards. (This is very early in the game)

I've played this fight about 8 times so far and routed most of thier units and they always have about 300 men left... I'm killing with my 600+ men with a kill count of over 1500+!!!!

But I just can't seem to break up the last wave and the General.

Then it hit me...

Autosave reloads is WRONG!

While am I playing this battle 8 times, reloading up trying something different. I lost the castle, so kudus to the AI. Can the AI say, "Hang on! Let me reload this and I will win this time!"

I'm going to restart my Moor campaign and if I loose a battle then tough! I should be a better Sultan!

So my question to the community; Do you reload battles or do you lose like a man? So there is "alittle" realism to your campaign.

Be interested to hear how you guys play it. 100% prue or 50/50 with autosave reloads?
