    Default FIELDABLE ARMY SIZE

    Hi All,

    I am an avid fan and keep an eye on this forum and i have never seen anyone ask, although it is probably more in relation to the actual Total War game engine. is it possible to increase the amount of units you can actually take into a battle / have in your stack.

    I think it must be on 20 at the moment (probably wrong) and i would like to push my computer to make for larger battles, is there anything i could do to allow for larger armies?

    Regards

    btw: AI is cheating, it uses 22 units stacks
    Yea I know the name is terrible, but it's not really finished.

    Nope. It doesn't.

    When you preview the AI army, you see three rows, with 9 columns each, because the interface is too thin to have 10 columns in one row.
    Man is but a shadow of his former self, encased in feverish delusions of grandeur.

    I believe this limit is hardcoded.

    There's no way to put more than 20 seperate units but you can increase unit size to beyond huge I THINK - I know it can be done for some TW games

    this cannot be done for TATW. The maximum size of a unit is 25x soldiers. If you would go beyond huge you would have more then that number which would cause a CTD.

    Hmmmm... Well here's a product from DaGoofy regarding huge armies for Stainless Steel. I don't know if anyone here at TATW has worked on something similar....

    [GoofyMods product] # # # Very huge unit sizes & Unique unit speeds mod 1.0 for SS 6.x # # # (very large units + unique speeds for each unit type + longer range for crossbows). This is realistic warfare. Not yet compatible with RR\RC.

    Hope it helps...

    @ Mega Tortas
    If I didn't missread it, he actually doesn't reach the 25x men limit.
    (biggest unit would be 88*2,5=220)

    Well I play on the next size up from normal setting. I've gotten used to it and the unit pathfinding in settlements is tolerable. For me pathfinding in settlements on huge size is....unerving. So even though I'm not keen on the bigger sizes, I had that friend who is so I posted his mod in case it could help someone here out.

    Luv you guys for taking on the big stuff but for me, Big Big is just too big...
