Very nice game. Found a trick, while holding 4, pressing C (my personalized attack key) and releasing 4 leaves devotion on repeat constantly healing companions while being able to do other things like attacking. Be sure to buy a horse, attack someone on the front line and after provoking him head towards a nearby tree or something so you can't be attack on both sides, others will attempt to hit you and circle around. There's an issue with "Your army is too big" on easy mode, keep trying to drag units, if not right-click (remedies another issue with movement becoming sluggish on the world map), refresh, it's fixable.
