What unit size?
Remember when you guys said you'd tell us the recommended unit size to play on? Could you tell me what the historical unit size is or what you recommend? Cause I always have trouble deciding whats the best and most realistic, especially between Large and Huge. Though I'm hearing that Huge isnt even close to how many men were in most battles in the Roman Era. I'm getting battles with like 5,000 casualites and the aftermath seems pretty large to me.

There is no way to approach ancient unit sizes, so any implementation of RTW is a "scale" implementation. I think our chosen scale was in the neighborhood of 20:1, but I can't recall exactly. Anyway, the balancing was done for "Large," IIRC.

From my own small experience so far Large unit sizes are the only way to go. The economics will crush you otherwise.
