The Creative Assembly's Jack Lusted has taken to the forums to update the community on the "Battles and Unit" team's plans to further change and tweak battles and unit balance in Total War: Rome II. Perhaps one of the most interesting and deadly changes will be attacks on armies in the Force March stance initiating ambush battles instead of a capture point battle.
The details and explanations provided by Jack Lusted are fairly lengthy, so it would be easiest to read them here, before rushing back to discuss them.
