How to avoid being eliminated?

[felixckw]

Sometimes in land combat, I find nearly all my troops are eliminated in an enemy shock attack, even though I have enough supply and support for the troops, and the strength ratio is just 1:1. Why?

Leadership, experience, morale, fatigue and disruption all affect how well your troops fight. Try using ground attacks or lcu bombardment (disrupt him before he disrupts you). If they're allied, they generally tend to fold up. Where did this happen?
