On the other hand, with less manouverability comes the fact that it's harder to flank anyway, since you and the enemy can form a line simply too long to out-flank. The battles only get more realistic the larger the unit size (960 vs 960 men deciding the faith of let's say Flanders is pretty ridiculous), but for me the weak performance of my computer is more important in a campaign.
