    Default The massively oversized cannon crew

    Upon being attacked by an army of the Batavian Republic, the battle screen popped up with some interesting unit sizes. With unit sizes set to ultra, one of my cannon units had 136 men, another had 85, and a unit of cavalry had 65 (only five over the max, but still). I won't lie, when my cannons got flanked this was pretty useful, but it's still odd. No other units were affected and after the battle were full with 24 men but the glitched units were still very much overmanned (I used them to replenish some other weakened units ). Here are some pictures: http://s944.photobucket.com/albums/a...cannonwtf1.jpg http://s944.photobucket.com/albums/a...cannonwtf2.jpghttp://s944.photobucket.com/albums/a...cannonwtf3.jpg

    I've encountered this too, I think it's something to do with reinforcements. I had a unit of Brunswicker Dragoons that numbered 200, now that was interesting.

    I've had this as well once. Had a unit of 300 Lifeguard Heavy Cavalry as the British. Needless to say, they did a lot of damage when charging headlong into the enemy (I assumed incorrectly that the numbers would return back to normal when I returned to the campaign map and so figured that any cavalry above the normal amount for the unit were expendable). It was a lot of fun and it looked really impressive seeing 300 cavalrymen charging forwards.
