Thanks :)

I don't remember eactly which mission you mean, but make sure you pay close attention to what you are up against. Not all ghost warriors are equal strength - some are very weak, others very tough so check their level.

If they are mixed in with other troops types make sure you know what you are fighting. E.g. Ghouls are very easy to kill with missiles.

Ghosts are heavy infantry so fighting them in rough going gives them big penalties. Ghosts are relatively easy to ride down with cavalry, but dont let your horses get involved in a melee.

Mass your auxilia in the rough ground to fight the ghosts. Send cavalry round the sides after you take out the weaker ghosts, and engage the archers. Even if you dont kill them all it keeps them busy and stps them shooting your auxilia packed in the rough.
