It's rather remarkable that among all the carnage you inflicted, you did not kill a single Ermor commander! Was this just an aberration? Or was there a reason for this? In a long battle where both sides take a beating, you'd normally expect an errant arrow or spell to do in at least one commander.
Note Ermor's excellent placement of his troops/mages. For example he placed a force behind his mages, so attack rear would not work. Also my longbowman are very, very accurate. With wind guide they had precision of 18, anything beyond 10 is doubled so thats 26 precision, they hit what they aim at! I set them to half attack closet/half fire at archers, a pity there is no fire at mages/leaders order! In retrospect thats why I lost the battle in the end, I set too many to fire at archers. I killed all his archers down to the last man/undead. I should have done 75% attack closet/25 % attack archers...oh well live and learn.
