It just seems like the obvious answer with regards to indigenous forces and columns, that the wrong unit type is being used to represent them; forming up in a nice fat target like a column is not something that they'd be doing ... actually forming up into any sort of fat target is not something that they'd do - their own populations couldn't sustain losses - so in effect battles were mostly existential to a degree - meaning nations were very sensitive to what losses actually meant in terms of their various nations.
