The only control you can have over battles is the "scripting" of units before the battle.

Aaaaah, okay thank you. I am simply very confused because I am not able to win battles very easily, or with an always same strategy, even against almost-same armies. :\

I don't understand how to 'bless', or how to get/find better units than the units you can make at start of the game.

Makes me wish Josh had not spilled Coke on the manual. ;]

Thank you all!

To bless you need commanders with priest level. You can script them in the army menu with 'Cast a specific spell'. Choose 'Blessing' and some of your sacred troops will be blessed. Priests with priest level 3 and higher are able to cast 'Devine Blessing' which bless all your sacred units on the battlefield.

The starting units are very good in most cases. You normally get better troops trough better spells. Try to research 'Conjuration'. Your mages will be able to cast some mighty summons if you research one of the higher levels.

I think virtually every nation starts with good to excellent units of 1 type or another. Indeed the usual drawback is that the best national units are usually capital only.

You only get better units from higher level spells, special sites or the odd rare indie province.

Playing SP, it is very rare for me to lose more than a dozen units in a battle. Most of the time I do not lose any, its just a matter of gaining experience with the game. Eventually even impossible AI's are just mostly harmless.
