Re: When do you use the battle autoresolve option?
I use when I've defeated the enemy army once and it seems like a waste of time to deploy my army again just to defeat a handful of depleted enemy units who survived the battle. I also use it when a city battle is so one-sided that there's no hope of victory, or no fear of defeat (such as an enemy full stack attacking my small garrison, or two of my veteran armies of high-tier units attacking an enemy cityh with only a garrison). It varies - sometimes I don't use it because I want to see what will happen next in the battles, sometimes I use it because I want to see what will happen next in the campaign.
