Default Re: Tactics: Principles, Tips, Tricks, and Traps

Break enemy cavalry charges with militia in the front line (or something like that), so that they can't use their lances against your real soldiers.

When moving around big army late in the game, don't keep them all in one province, since that makes them an easy target for Flames From the Sky, etc. Of course, this can be risky, if the army is split up when a battle happens.

Always give commanders bodyguards, always have spare commanders with your army if some die.

Keep extra gems, Wine Bags, Cauldrons of Broth, etc. on scouts or other stealhy troops and move them with your armies.
