So enlarging the map would adjust things to the vainilla parameters of distance/time...

But as I said, it`s a matter of personal tastes.

I know, and I don't want vanilla parameters, they sucked! It took about 10 years to get from carthage to alexandria. Thats absurd! I would certainly hate it if we went that way!

Obviously realistic marching times would be absurd as well, we can't simulate all the possible ways that an army can be slowed down, so I am not advocating that armies should march at realistic speeds. Current EB speeds are good (though I would prefer something slightly further, particularly with quite a few traits slowing down armies), and if we did increase the size of the map I would like speeds to rise accordingly.
