Defending the small town at the Gibraltar against 2 Carthaginian armies attacking by sea. I deploy waiting for them to disembark and engage my legionaries and to flank them with some berserker mercs. This is where it all goes wrong.
A few units magically break through my line without a fight and get stretched out in a column 1 man wide.
My main line is engaged and I spring my trap with the berserkers. They dont engage the enemy but instead keep going towards the beach. Then I realize there is a unit flag on the beach which all my units try to attack. The berserkers go nuts and start murdering my evocati. Magical pikemen column suddenly decides to attack them from the rear.
I barely won the battle because all my units kept going towards that one point on the beach, disregarding anyone attacking them. No matter which unit I ordered them to attack, they'd all go towards that point.
Notice the red lines of units trying to attack the empty beach.
This looks to me like a Rome 2 but I post it here to bring it to people's attention.
