As I understand it, Dmitry, turn management is at least as important to you as knowledge of combat (i.e., either equally important or more important). That's what I disagree with. For me, knowledge of combat is much more important than turn management. Because if I can't break through the guard, I don't even try to find a shorter path to it, but I take the path where I can pass. If, however, I know how to kill the guard, then only then will I try to shorten the path to it.
It seems I was trying too subtly to explain that you shouldn't rely solely on the combat aspect. Sorry.:)
In essence, these two things should go together, and only then will there be a worthy result. As for which is more important, I think the time is not far off when you will change your mind.;)
...tell me how you broke into the garrison.
Let others scratch their heads.:)
