Hello everyone,
was any F2P player able to 3-star the decisive battle against the Han army from the Roman side? I have restarted it countless times, losing everything in the last battle everytime.
I mostly only lose Aetius along the way in the first four battles and sometimes Mithridates (though irrelevant, he would probably command a 3-stack slinger ^^).
So I don't think there is much to improve on the fighting power, I do end up being able to put 8 good generals (lacking inf gens, only Verci and Pompey, but still my core team consisting of the best non-IAP generals: commander, belisarius, arminius etc.) on decent units.
In any case, the battle is lost mainly due to terrible AI movement (and I do mean terrible terrible, like a human would play if he/she wants to play purposefully bad, stuff like using my commander on 4-stack javelineer to attack 10 hp light inf, or even refusing to attack at all even if it could). Meanwhile, the enemy AI plays at least decent, if not occasionally concretely smart, like not attacking my commander to risk a counter-attack, thus wasting a couple rounds for me. (I have observed a few rare exceptions to this, in some rounds they do attack my commander, but I was not able to identify any deterministic pattern, if one exists).
I wanted to ask if you guys have any tips, perhaps anything AI-related that I should know, but let me tell you beforehand that I won't buy another inf general just for this, as I can just farm another DB medal-wise and would just buy the one cav commander scroll I was hoping to get for 45 medals

but it's definitely the harder of the two 50 medal dbs. And I did it with 3 inf generals.
