    Default What graphics settings do you guys play on and what is the number of units you can have

    Hey everyone,

    So I have noticed people talking about having huge scale units and massive battles involving thousands of people, and I was curious as to what battle settings you guys were playing on.

    I currently can get to 4000 troops with everything on high setting (not maxed, just high) before it says that I am exceeding the recommended settings.

    However I have a quad core and geforce 8800GT among all the other essential stuff like RAm and memory cache etc. Should I be able to get more?

    What can you guys get?

    I have to play on the lowest graphics settings with the lowest troop numbers.

    Still fun as hell.
    Well, I'm back again.

    Ok I just did a test and had all graphics on high with 7000 troops. Even though it said I had reached optium max at 4000, I still could play the match with virtually no lag...... the only time things got bad was when I sped it up x6 so I can live with that.

    but how do you get up to 15.000 on the screen, changes for unit size or just a bunch of full stacked armies in the same battle?

    ootm, Mordor and Isengard can field 5k stacks on huge settings, because a lot of their units have 250 men per unit.

    The most times I ever see close to 15k is during siege defense as Gondor v Mordor, or when defending against an evil Jihad

    With highest unit graphics and everything else low, as well as small unit numbers, I can get maybe 5000 troops on screen without too much lag.

    With highest settings I've been able to get 15000+ soldiers on the field. Haven't tried more than that though...

    I'm one of those people who has to play on lowest settings with smallest unit scales. I wish autoresolve was more balanced...

    all settings max, even AA and AF, huge settings, can get 6k. the screen resolution is 1366X768

    I play on my beloved notebook:

    P7350, 4g ram, and a 4670 with 512mb. I play with win 7 X64

    see thats the thing, I can have 15k troops, but it isn't ideal gameplay.

    What are everyone's specs who are playing 10K + with no lag?!??!?!?!?!?
