    How often do you auto-resolve battles in your campaign?

    Myself I really enjoy the battles so I went with the second option. I only auto if I outnumber the enemy by a very large amount.

    A battle that isn't particulary exiting, I'll likely autoresolve. I gave the 50/50 awnser but in truth since so many one-sided battles can happen it's probably more.

    Whenever it's close or I need all the advantage I can get, I draw my sword and charge in personally.

    One sided (my doom stack attacking level 1 castle) battles I'll AR - usually I like to fight all my battles though.

    Only if it's a complete mismatch - I love the battles.

    Only if I'm 100% sure I'll win. Otherwise I like playing close battles.

    Usually just on one-sided sieges and such. The whole ninja grappling hook ruins the historical feel for me.

    What grappling hook? There are no grappling hooks in the game.

    However it is that mobs of fully armored samurai quickly scale walls. I'm just assuming this is ninjutsu.

    Anyway, I take the more realistic siege route every time.

    I've never even SEEN a battlefield ninja troop.
    Can't be hard to avoid that eh?

    I'll play anything close, and auto anything which has odds greater than 3:1

    Default Re: How oftern do you auto-resolve?

    I've always, always, always auto-resolved battles in TW in which I have a multi-stack force. I can't stand the idea of having to lose my first army in order to get reinforcements. Other than that, I'll autoresolve any battles that seems easily winnable. If it requires no effort, it's not worth my time, really.
    believe in nothing.

    That's....both admirable and ludicrously foolish.

    Yeah maybe, but I enjoy it that way (never auto).

    The easy battles just give me more of a chance to zoom in and admire the artwork, animations and so on

    Dito.

    I never Auto-Resolve and play battles on very hard.
    Exeptions prove the rule, of course.

    I also try not to exploit the ai and therefore sometimes avoid too unfair battles from the start.

    That's what I would call exeptions

    Because I'm playing on normal, I tend to auto-resolve when the battle is definitely in my favor. I'll fight close battles (because I don't want heavy losses) and battles where it's a definitive loss, but the repercussions would be great. IE, if the enemy was going to take a province, but I didn't have reinforcements in the area, I would fight the losing battle to try and kill as many as possible to make it easier to win the province back.

    Mostly when I'm taking castles - evenly depletes my forces rather than if I did it and getting one unit of Yaris wiped out.

    Plus against retainers, there's no loss of life when my comp takes over

    I auto-resolve loads. Really I'll only fight a battle if it's gonna be an auto loss but I know I can win myself.

    I only auto-resolve "finish off battles" you know like when you just fought a big battle but like 3 quarter strength Ashigaru make it away.

    Big battles I fight because obviously I want to use my human skill and not take unnecessary losses.

    Small battles I fight because it's not so frantic and I can zoom in more and enjoy the sick graphics and animations.
