Game size and dificulty

[Monsieur Alphonse]

This thread made me realize that on my old computer the Germans were much stronger than on my new one. I used to play with medium sized units and I now play on huge settings. This has a negative effect on the Germans and the Seleucid's.

[Lt. Pinard]

Ok so basically you make it harder for yourself by playung a slow growth, population wise, faction and have the unit size at huge.

[The Wandering Scholar]

On huge settings armies are much harder to move on the battlefield, yes especially barbarian towns run out of population quickly making it a steam-roller for Roman faction with large towns and wise micro-management. Upkeep costs and base costs will stay the same regardless.
