Even the Total War engine starts to slow down when there are 10 000+ soldiers on screen so I'm pretty sure that the Elemental engine would also have some problems.

Sovereign rushing is definately a bit too effective tactic.

Maybe we're talking apples and oranges, but I have had more than 10 units in an army: [/quote] You should read this thread: http://quartertothree.com/game-talk/showpost.php?p=2277109&postcount=1373 Brad says that armies will be limited to 10 units in the final game.

This isn't the early 90's or late 80's...and this Isn't MoM. MoM was a Masterpiece, but it was quite limited for it's day. Honestly, Elemental blows MoM out of the water in Every Way-Shape-and form.

General Trinklevox - The leader of a 1000-man army One rainy day a strange man wandered into a small coastal town. He called himself General Trinklevox and acted like he was some legendary hero and a commander of a mighty army, even though he was dressed like a simple peasant and nobody had ever heard of him. All day long this so-called "general" tried to recruit more men into his "army" using quite peculiar methods. He usually just grabbed the ar

One possibility would be randomly placing 3-4 super powerful special artifacts into the galaxy. When one player or a team controls all the planets that have these artifacts, a timer starts and if they can defend the planets long enough, they win.
