I am mainly talking about in the campaign map. So that as the general you can use the terrain rather than being put on what is basically a rectangular flat area with one gradual gradient.
Especially in places like Western Europe where operating cavalry would have presented unique problems. i.e. you cannot move them very well into uneven ground and some ground would be impassable or marshland slowing cavalry and heavy armour down. Skirmishers would be at a distinct advantage here.
Thus the general must really survey the ground before contemplating a conventional battle their.
At the moment in BI and RTW you can just battle anywhere and not have a problem.
Same goes for castles which are never protected by the map terrain.
