Two opposing forces clash against each other.

Cavalry comes into its own when able to strike hostile forces at will, and from unexpected directions - and nowhere is this more feasible than on open plains. Lightly armoured spear units, however, prefer terrain where there's some cover available.

Fighting defensively on open plains, cavalry draws strength from the ability to form and reform their lines of engagement depending on the direction of battle, and it is here where cavalry excels.

poor understanding of combat and utter disbelieve of common sense is way more popular as you may think.
even really big, experienced players keep on doing most crazy stuff...
like defending in woods whit archers, attacking camps of spears in woods whit cavalry...
this is most probably due to the common practice to just build T2 of your racial elite.
which is stupid.
