Both (defending a bridge crossing and using the corner of the map) make it easier for the player to win the battle.
Having said that I'm quite happy to defend a bridge crossing when my army is outnumbered by 2:1 odds or greater.
I guess the same is also true of defending the corner as it prevernt the AI from attacking your rear/flanks. However, I don't think I've ever done that.
In the dim and distant past I've stopped a massed Roman invasion of Macedon by defending the river drossings while launching a naval invasion of Italy while the main Roman armies are tied up on my borders in northern Greece. Taking out their hime territory does reduce their ability to produce more reinforcements.....

You can do it in this thread but perhaps you are refering to AAR´s ? Or the Post your empires thread.
