Recruit
There's no penalty for retreating. So I can run in on a mount, throw my javelins, circle around the enemy while my archers pick off enemies and then as soon as my horse goes down, or the enemy gets close enough to start taking out my army, I can just retreat in a split second and repeat with a brand new horse and 5 new javelins.
I've used this to take out groups 2-3x larger than mine over 5-10 battles, even with the accuracy update (I do get pelted by rocks a bit more when fighting looters). It's harder to do with real archers / javelin throwers but still possible.
In a retreat, either resources shouldn't be replenished or some of your units should die / get wounded while retreating.
