How do I make a "box"?
I've seen some videos where people will get a bunch of the same units and put them into a really small box that moves quickly and is good at burning buildings down. How do i do that? There is no formation button or anything like that.

Don''t mean to be a dick but for real. It would have taken way less time to google, and wouldn''t have made a new thread for a question that has been answered a million times.

Youll need to check a button in the options that says something like "show advanced unit tactics" or something similar. and then you can see all of the different formations. Then youll need the same type of unit (cav or infantry) in the same group and put both in defense (which is the shield icon) and then theyll make a box around one of the units (mostly the ranged is on the inside).
And I am guessing youre talking about the Russian cav box in which case you need a bunch of Oprichniks and one cav archer, and then theyll be really fast and dangerous

To make a box put all the units into defend mode as shown below. It works best if you control group them too. Remember that you also can "box" infantry units (e.g., Hatamoto around an Ashigaru).

Don't make boxes... It's lame and will just piss a bunch of people off.
The function of man is to live, not to exist.
