As you all noticed by now there are 5 unit size options all the way up to Extreme unit size which is 240 for infantry. I personally started with Ultra which has 160 for infantry to sort of learn things the first few tries. However, having 40 for cavalry feels a little underwhelmed. What size do you use?
I started on extreme but felt it was unrealistic for chinese armies. I'm having 210 for cavalry and 760 for infantry. Runs really smoothly too compared to previous games,which has impressed me greatly.
One booboo I made was making catapults have 20 catapults each, though I suppose in a country with huge numbers of men power available it is more realisic than just 4 catapults.
I accidentally started on Medium and then was already too engulfed to start anew. I'll finish this campaign with infantry at 40 and cavalry at 10. It makes for more interesting micro management of the units if they are so small, especially cavalry at 10, but it is indeed less epic. I'll definitely play my next campaign on ultra.
Extreme should give you 240 for infantry. How did you get 760?Quote:

For those who use Extreme unit size, I'd love to hear your experience on how the game is affected. A few screenshots would be nice too.
Which would make it something more than Extreme.Quote:

Looking at unit sizes that isn’t extreme just makes me sad.
