A few things to keep in mind: -Your General has (usually) a pretty beefy unit you can often risk him to provide morale boosts, hit enemy on flanks, or to beat a weaker unit. For example, a general unit charge can sometimes destroy a unit of low cost spears like militia in one go. -Missile troops don't work well when bunched up. Try spreading them out for a proper firing arc. If they have to aim high they will suffer in terms of accuracy. Aim for targets that are either dangerous units for you to face head on or to make later fight easier. Cavalry are big walking targets. They can move fast but are easy to hit. A well timed arrow volley can decimate a charge or mess up any unattended cavalry units in the open. -One of the earliest problems to learn how to counter: Missile Cavalry. DO NOT CHASE THEM. They will just run away while still shooting you. To counter, use foot archers they have typically better range and are more accurate. -Sword and axe units should be what you use to kill infantry. Axes work well against the heavily armored. Spears to either receive a charge or counter cavalry. Light cavalry to flank an enemy position, hit weaker parts of a line, or run down routing units. Medium Cavalry(heavy cavalry that do not have horse armor) can work most cavalry roles in a pinch and usually shine in melee combat without sacrificing speed too much. Heavy or Shock Cavalry will brutalize an unprepared defender and cause large morale penalties as well as casualties but are slow and need protection. If using pikes remember that guard position works well for them to set up a fortified position. -Guard position is probably one of the most under utilized options in game. It tells your units to stay in formation at all times, obey all orders given even under duress unless routed(ie if given an order to charge a line they will continue to do so even if they get charged from the side), and also will refuse to chase down enemies who disengage from the fight(running away or luring you out of a defensive position). -Flanking is probably the easiest way to cause a unit to mass panic and run. if you cant go around the line try softening it with missile fire before striking or place your best units in the area to try to break. In this way one or more of your units has a better chance to get through and hit a neighboring enemy unit in the side. -As long as public order is at or above 100% there is no chance of rebellion. as long as public order is above 200% rebel armies cannot spawn(although brigands still can). generally rebels have professional units and brigands do not. -build economy buildings first if able. This will mean better support of multiple armies, meaning easier campaigns. -ROADS are hugely important they allow much faster travel between cities, provide growth from trade, and money from trade. -Mercenaries should really only be used for a major battle or war with one nation then disbanded so they don't eat up your finances. -utilizing special ammo abilities costs extra ammo per shot to compensate with lower rate of fire and extra status effects. -Don't neglect the papacy if you don't get into the cardinal promotion game you will find yourself on the receiving end of a 6 nation coalition to end you. -Your decisions on the campaign map and the battlefield will shape your generals. Chasing down the fleeing army, Exterminating a settlement, and crushing an army significantly smaller then you (10+ units) will certainly cause an increase in dread. occupying a town, ending a battle without chasing down enemies, releasing captives, and crusades will cause an increase in chivalry. -Chivalry is good for defense and best city growth and dread is good for attack and best for public order. -Inquisitions will target any and all generals and units in sight they will try to denounce your men and will cause public order issues until you eliminate heretics completely in the area and nearby areas. so spam priests to try to get rid of the inquisition or make assassins. -always examine menus and information buttons and such to find more options available (including moving your capital which is hugely important late game.)

Thanks dude. I try to reply to most when possible, even if its a like of a comment to show I've acknowledged it.

Another tip: Try to be smart what type of settlement you really need. You have two types of settlements: Towns and castles. Towns generally generate more income, but don´t have the facilities to train strong units. Castles can train stronger units, but generate lower income. I think you generally want more towns, especially as your empire grows. You can build castles closer to the frontlines to be able to quickly build and move stronger units to the battlefield and protect your empire.
