I'm not sure if I understood you right... You want to say that it would be too hard to kill well positioned troops on a hill? If that is so hard, than it's better cause players will fight for those positions... In the other hand, there are more possible options:
1) your enemy and an active player: in one moment, he will climb down to attack using the advantage, just after he killed many of your troops that failed to drive away his troops from the hills, or he doesn't make it to repel your attack at the hill, and you are taking over the hill.
2) your enemy is a passive player and he just sends his army on the hill to guard this position (which is rare in fact, but I am trying to take a look at all possibilities): then you can take a look at his army, and knowing it's weaknesses, you can figure out how to attack the opponent and to drive him away with minimal loses!

Maybe I misunderstood you, but however, there's always a way! For example, crossbows would be good against horse archers, flying stone or flying cows would be good against crossbows, and so on... And it is always much better feeling when you win a game with a little more use of brain!
