Armies

[Praetoria]

Just an idea, but i'd like to play battle with 2 complete armies... (around 50k men).
We need almost 6 players. Who should be?

[Asid]

I will answer the call 

[Miko]

might be too much for engine + connections + players' PCs....

did you mean 50k in total? - if so then might be doable.. if 50k a side - I would try something smaller first in attempt to push the boundaries...

try 30k a side first and see how it works...

[Praetoria]

Both possibilities, i mean, we have really big maps, but playing even in little spaces, with "little" groups, sometimes it would be funny a large scale battle.
We can try first with 30k, to check the player's pcs, about the connections 10k or 100k it's the same

If I remember correctly, the maximum we hit in a battle was close to 50k in total.

As Miko said, could be too much for player's pc and connection, we risk heavy lag. About connections, I don't know if 10k and 100k is the same because you have more data to transfer to each player(?)

Anyway we can try and see how it works!

[Praetoria]

I think we can simply try initially with 50k to check player's pcs and connections

[Miko]

Shall I make the scenario for Wednesday slightly bigger then? Or should that be independent project for another time?

[Praetoria]

If for all is good we can try wednesday too
