How to effectively use quick battles (autobattles)?

The only thing that can be said with certainty is that quick battle is effective when fighting archers (archers don't shoot during quick battle) and

Nah, forget it. Why wouldn't they shoot? :eek: :confused: That's utter nonsense. I've had so many battles where, for example, out of 9 gr. Rukh in an auto-battle against 15-20 Grand Elves, 1-2 Rukh would die. Are you saying the Grand Elves took them down in hand-to-hand combat? :D There are countless similar situations where, in a normal battle, you just wait and then calmly finish off the archers in hand-to-hand combat, and you can avoid losses. In auto-battle, it seems like the troops immediately rush into the direct line of fire and take a beating with completely unjustified losses. Please don't try to mislead newbies with nonsense and a know-it-all attitude in the future.
