A Like they historically were (who cares about graphics I'll take stick figures)

B As close to historic sizes, with about the same graphical detail of RTW(The next totalwar series is at least a few years away and systems might be able to handle such unit sizes along with keeping about the same graphical detail)

C As close to historic sizes with about the same graphical detail as MTW

D Sacrifice graphics a degree to allow for larger unit sizes(A mix of RTW & MTW

E Graphics first and then largest units possible for max performance

F I like these small units for easy flanking manuevers

G other

Was just wondering what unit sizes people would like for the next totalwar

I was wanting the unit sizes like they historically were.

If you play a custom battle in MTW, 1 with small unit sizes and 1 on huge unit sizes you will notice a big difference. On small unit sizes all units are extremely maneuverable but on huge you have less maneuverabilty.

The thing is historically a lot of units were large in size and this would take gameplay to a more historical aspect. I hate these small battles where every other unit is performing a flanking maneuver (both the comps and mine). And this would emphasize of maintaining a line while your units on the flank do the work. IMO huge units would make it mor appealing. Just watching decisive battles and seeing the overall view of those huge armies made it more impressive.

Just remember if you do'nt like the massive unit sizes they are probably still going to have the options for small regular large and huge unit sizes
