    Default Size of units

    On huge scale in MTW2, the number of units is near 50% less than those of RTW, so is this a hard-coded engine problem, or a simply case of changing some numbers in export_units

    hardcoded, but the max number of men on "normal" size setting was raised from 60 to 75

    Ahh, just a historical question would Medieval armies be larger than most EB period armies?

    The good news, is Kingdoms use the same number of unit of RTW.

    The bad news is that M2TW's engine is a lot heavier for your computer, so you might have to reduce the number of soldiers to get the game running in a playable manner.

    On the other hand, EB II isn't coming in a while so I have a while to update my comp to run it.

    Unit size limits for Kingdoms, no officers or generals:

    Huge - 250
    Large - 187
    Normal - 125
    Small - 100

    (EDU max value for number of soldiers is 100)
