Chryssalids are easy
you don't have to use cover when fighting them so just put your men in a semi circle more than one move away from them and they'll just run right up to you and not attack.
Mix in a few other aliens and they're a problem.

Gaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay.
That way you will NEVER know the thrill of routing a metric FUCKTON of German spearmen units backed by several wailing women units and two barbarian warlord cavalry units with only a Roman general, one unit of principes and one unit of Roman archers.
Look, the trick with ANY battle in RTW is to have ALL your infantry in one block, archers in a block behind them ALWAYS using fire arrows, and ALL your cavalry on one flank.
Use your archers to target one enemy infantry unit at a time, your cavalry to charge the enemy flank and either roll them up or disengage and chase down fleeing units to stop them regrouping, and ALWAYS send your infantry straight up the middle. That way the enemy general will almost always charge your infantry and you can hack him to pieces by trapping him between your infantry and cavalry, all the while raining firey arrowy death down on him.
