    In Three Kingdoms they experimented a bit: the way they changed army composition technically meant you got 1 whole extra unit lol (3 lords and their retinues of 6 units each.) So I guess it’s not impossible!

      Yeah, I think that’s the only time they’ve ever really tried to mess with the “formula” like that. I think there’s a lot of ways they could have interesting turn based strategy and real time tactics, instead of just sticking to 20v20 fights in every game.

        Indeed, I guess to be fair to the devs as a player, usually when I have big battles featuring 20+ units, one of those armies typically ends up camped somewhere while I micro their cavalry or something, either waiting for the first army to win or die. 20 units is just about as many as I need to be able to defeat like 90% of AI generated armies, let alone be able to really effectively use so many units, although thats kind of a skill issue on my part.
