Ok, so I'm well into my Scipii game, conquered around 20 provinces now, playing w/ Huge unit size. Now, I never noticed Huge unit sizes had no time limit, except in sieges, but i was happy with that as i get enough time to shower the enemy with projectiles. Anyways, i sieged this Macedonian city with a large garrison, and suddenly, they sally the siege, which was expected, since my sieging army is less than 1/2 size of the garrison+reinforcements. So my principe and archers beat off wave and wave of their lancers and phanlanxes, and routed their entire garrison+reinforcements, with like 1/2 of my army left. Ok, I'll let them rout off the field and continue the siege, but OH NO, its a sally, so they can NEVER ROUT OFF THE FIELD! I have no siege equipement and am too weak to assault them anyways, and they are just sitting inside the walls doing nothing! Even though they attacked me! Since there is no time limit, they just sit there forever and i have to take the loss, even though i only had 2 turns to go till I starved them out! I hope this never happens again, but just in case, is there any way to turn on the time limit for huge unit size? I think time limit is dependent on unit size and i don't see a time limit option anywhere, in game or in the menu.
