How to effectively use quick battles (autobattles)?

Yes, the specifics of the quick battle were discussed in more detail in the HD mod thread; in the latest versions, the strange issues and shortcomings that were observed have already been fixed, and the result of the quick battle is much more adequate. And I'll repeat: for beginners, quick battles are often helpful, making the game easier and saving time, but it's important that, after completing the initial training phase, using quick battles doesn't become a bad habit – in all "serious" cases, you need to fight yourself, without relying on the AI! Only in this way can you learn to fight truly effectively!
