Sergeant at Arms
I tested campaign with the Empire. I joined the Empire as a vassal and joined their army. Just let the game run by itself.
"An Aserai army of 853 chases the sieging Empire army of 539. The speed of the two armies are dead even. The chase goes on until the chasing army corners the Empire army into a mountain wall. The battle takes place. Once again, I let ai play as to not influence the outcome. In my experience, generally when the odds are like this with ai vs ai, the smaller number usually loses. However, due to the battle terrain system, being cornered on the mountain side on the campaign map allowed us to start at the top of the mountain. The Aserai was forced to go up the slope and their cavalry was slow as heck. The Empire won after their first infantry block got destroyed and another reinforcement block came to take their place. The remaining 100-200 Aserai retreated.
@developers, I've noticed that the Aserai cavalry isn't aggressive. They tend to stay put until its too late where they lose a good chuck on their cavalry before they start attacking. This is not the same for Vlandia and Empire. Their cavalry usually smash into enemy infantry with success.
