Game`s difficulity. Am I missing something??

i've noticed that the type of units you carry also affect the difficulty rating, for instance let's say you have 60 guardsmen and look at a stack which shows overpowering and you swap the 60 guardsmen with 30 royal snakles then the opposing stack would be listed as let's say slightly stronger.

Maybe you should leave some lower level troops at a castle and get higher level troops.
