If you wana make a good citi (in slow play) you got to have a good defence,not to be bothered every second. I find the limit of pop 200 is too small to have a good defence and to make a good attack force. It is always a pain in the ass to beat down the enemy with small force, I got a million of all resources and that is not enough becaus of stupid limit!

It's to prevent lag.

Yeah, but I want a big clash! Like 1000 of dead. I mean what kind of a clash is it 15 infantry or cavalry V.S. 15 something. It´s more like a football match...

you mean....you want a clash that you CANT watch because of horrid lag? i find that 20 infantry a few cannons vs the same is quite fun to watch...feel like im watching that move, The Patriot...

Too small, I want dead bodies every where! Look at some paints from Napoleon war, like the batlle at Borodin (near Moscow).

well...i think it would be neat if dead bodies would never disappear...or at least the cannon..

but still...

perhaps...i think maybe 300 population would be more appropriate,,it does get annoying to have to build 50 settlers and still needing enough units too defend your base,trade posts, and enough units too make a good attack on your enemy.

i thought that you could get 300 with the immigrants shipment card? (mabye i read it wrong!

And yeah i remember in Empire Earth you could get 600 units per player in a 2player game for a max of 1200 (thats the max no matter how many players played so each added player makes the number of units per player go down.
I though that that was a good system although it still did lag a bit!

I don´t know how did they make AOE3 but in my opinion it takes to much resources from pc. That being the problem results that 200 pop is the limit. And it sux!

There is a single player mod. somewhere that lets you have a 999 limit pop...

Somewhere in Banglades?

yeah the first empire earth pop limit rocked you killed someone you got more pop limit and it didn't lag much at all. that was a great game. second one dissapointed me greatly. but i to wish you could get more pop limit in this game it kind of sucks when everything takes up 2,3,4, or 5 pop limit. i also remember making last stands in empire earth on top of hills in the highlands map that was always fun. to bad the don't have a mount combat bonus on here

immigrants gives u 100 pop without houses
