Automatic 'auto-resolve' is killing my guys.

I don't see an option to turn this feature off. If the computer thinks the battle would be easy it doesn't give the choice to fight the battle! And then my ranged fighters in the rear end up dead because they aren't designed for enemy contact. Anyone know a workaround?

In the options menu there's a slider that sets at what threshold of enemy units the game will ask you whether or not you want tactical combat.  Turn it to zero, and you'll never be forced into auto-resolve.

Apparently in auto resolve there is no movement, every unit just attacks whoever they want every turn. So it renders archers completely useless.

Yes, auto resolve "seems" to not take movement or range into account.  That's why I rarely use it,  That's why my threshold is set to 0.:grin:

Yeah auto sucks badly I auto an army about 1/4th my size and die... I attack and battle by hand (after loading) and don't even get hit because of their low attack scores.... WTF.
