You command small regiments of troops instead of individual units, and if units get stuck somewhere they're simply cut off from the rest of the group. While annoying, it's better than having the entire regiment get caught on a tree or some other object on the map.

A way point system helps compensate for the poor path finding, but no group selections are available and you can't move units via the mini-map, resulting in some frustration since you can select only one regiment, scroll to their destination, send them there, then repeat the process.

Cavalry, mage, archer, and infantry units have specific strengths and weaknesses and each regiment has a commander.
