    what is the size difference netween huge and normal?

    Small 0,5X
    Normal 1X
    Large = 1,33X (IIRC, or it's 1,5X)
    Huge size = 2X

    Not all units follow this scaling (general bodyguards for example), but I'm not certain how that works.

    Numibian spearmen does follow that scaling though.

Might I just be a brain in a tank somewhere, tricked all my life into believing in the events of this world by some insane computer? And does my life gain or lose meaning based on my reaction to such solipsism?

    The 20 man bodyguard units don't scale because they're set to non scalable in the unit prod file.

    Unit sizes are:

    Small: 1/2x
    Default: 1x
    Medium: 1 1/3x
    Large: 1 2/3x
    Huge: 2x

    Options - Performance - Unit Size

    No only for new campaigns.

    What about Byzantine Katanks when they are used as royal guards? Are they scalable?

    I ask because it just occurred to me that playing on small size might make it more challenging to be the Byzantine faction. If the Katank guards do scale down, then they would no longer have the advantage of double sized guards compared to other factions. (Of course there are boyar body guards for the Russians. I think they have 40 on default size.)

    Also, the mighty-big-for-swordsmen Byzantine Infantry would have a smaller numerical advantage over other swordsmen, though the ratio would remain the same.
    In those simple times there was a great wonder and mystery in life. Man walked in fear and solemnity, with Heaven very close above his head, and Hell below his very feet. God's visible hand was everywhere, in the rainbow and the comet, in the thunder and the wind. The Devil too raged openly upon the earth; he skulked behind the hedge-rows in the gloaming; he laughed loudly in the night-time; he clawed the dying sinner, pounced on the unbaptized babe, and twisted the limbs of the epileptic. A foul fiend slunk ever by a man's side and whispered villainies in his ear, while above him there hovered an angel of grace . . .
