ok, I'v decided to put my theory to the test:

In my opinion - tactics, orders, arrows and so on have nothing to do with the outcome of the game.
If the game engine wants you to win - you'll win, if it wants you to lose - you'll lose.

So I'm going to use stupid (but legal) tactics with idiotic arrows and orders to see what will happen...
(see pictures).

the game is in 3 hours.
