Hello, i'm currently playing as cherokee in the grand campaign, and i'm around year 1510, and attacking huron(?) the tribe in north, however they seem to absolutely destroy me in battle.
Me: 21000 troops (14k spearmen, 7k archers), land tech 0 (If it matters), general 1 fire, 1 shock, 0 siege, 0 manevour, about 2.6 morale.
Them: 12000 troops (12k archers), land tech 2, general fire 2 shock 3 siege 0 manevous 2, about 3.1 morale.
I realise the morale difference and leader difference can be pretty huge, but this is do an extent where if i roll 9 and they roll 1, we both kill 120 each "round", however if i roll 9 and they roll 9, i'll kill 120 while they'll take 960 off me every turn, even if i get terran bonus with -2 on their side, they absolutely destroy me, and kill my men 8:1
If there's anything i've forgotten to mention, or left out, please let me know, i think i've misunderstood the combat system somewhere.
