My biggest problem with this game (and I can already tell from the screenshots that they aren't going to resolve the issue.) is that the battles are minuscule in comparison to the real thing. Major European battles in the time frame of ETW and NTW were involved armies with 10s if not 100s of thousands of men. Sure, there were small skirmishes involving hundreds, and the America's never really saw any truly massive battles until much later, but battles like Leipzig, Austerlitz, or Waterloo are simply not done justice by the total war games.
