Suggestion for a different rule set in EB multiplayer

Right. I am also for under-20-slot armies, as once you get to 20, then you really start to see ridiculously unnecessary imbalances in army sizes. Besides, you can play 2v2 and 3v3 on huge if you have only 10 to 15 slots per army per person. 30k sounds pretty cool. Now, where does that leave Polybians: 26k or 27k? or am I off?

25 - 30 k games ftw ... that puts the romani on 15 - 20 k ? =D

30k sounds pretty cool.

We can always try it out and see how it works. + just as you mentioned, 2vs2 and 3vs3 battles could perform better with smaller armies because we always have that terrible and annoying lag when we play 2vs2.

Have mercy, give em 10k!

I have no idea. You guys should test it but I think the Romans are discounted by... 20%? So I took about 8% of their total costs off which would be around 28K for 30K. I dunno, test it. My only concern would be that a lower mnai would over power factions like Getai or Sweboz that have dirt cheap ultra deadly units. But it would give skirmishing a purpose...

I would like to allow for viable skirmishers because they are key in stopping cavalry in heavy infantry factions but at higher budgets you have to buy for heavy infantry if the opponent does.
