"Cohort-sized units. Battles can range from a few units to as many as 80 units per side."
We can't play The Battle of Cannae. :(

Actually 256 per side, but it isn't very practical. We therefore use a scaling factor for battles like Cannae.

Yes, although you will need a powerful machine indeed for the battle to run smoothly.
