Also is there anyway to actaully control the units during the battle ?It all seems to happen automactically during a kinda "turn resolution" process.

There is no control of units once TC has started. You can script them for certain actions though, and that is what you'll need to do to maximize their efficiency.

Without knowing what exactly you are using as a nation I'd recomend that you take your archers and locate them behind some infantry. Give the archers the fire at closest, or fire at enemy archers, give the infantry the hold and attack command. Depending on how well you figure your commanders will survive you can stick them waaaay in teh back so they won't get attacked, or stick them with the infantry and let them deal some death to the enemy.

If you have mages then you can use their specific spells by scripting it. I won't go into that as I don't have enough experience with Dom2 (or 1 for that matter) to really give good advice.
