MTW preferred unit size?

[The Stranger]

I play on huge. I like the larger battles and the increased building times add an element of planning: you can't quickly finish a unit of men-at-arms if you are expecting an attack.

in reality you could do that so why not in game? the AI will go backrupt very fast becuz you have to pay more for the same army while you dont make more money. so you wont have a very challenging campaign. and its cool to fight bigger battles with bigger units but not if you wont encounter big armies

In reality, medieval kings called on their vassels to provide them with pre-trained armies. They did not train them one by one. None of the TW games comes close to simulating how troops were levied. I agree that upkeep is a problem for the A.I., but I play MedMod where it is less of an issue. I did not notice any serious problems with A.I. army size and quality, or at least less so than in vanilla. Still, it is quite long ago since I played with normal unit, so I cannot really make an comparision.

i dont play a mod cuz most ar for VI and i dont have VI. but than again i dont mind which setting becuz you find yourself in a bigger battle in MTW faster than with RTW.

I been playing on default so far, but am thinking of switching to huge. If huge unit size makes the game unbalanced, I'll stick with default.

I use medium size,
the huge units size causes problems on my system in larger battles and I don't like the play. Small unitsize doesn't look or play right imho.

[The Stranger]

yeah, i agree. small units sucks but in MTW big units suck too. i do play with huge on RTW becuz they only change size and not upkeep or anything

I have been playing on huge, or the biggest you can get with mtw VI. And the one flaw...royal knights stay at 20. Its a common unit and a big flaw.
