You know how each "unit" is supposed to = 2000 men, well, it would be nice if there was some kind of random calc that showed total troops in a region by that number.

Ex. Say you have Militia X 10, Infantry X 15, Artillery X 8, Cavalry X 15. Then you might have a random number + 1500 for each infantry and cavalry and 150 + random 50 for artillery.

So, you might get 18,256 for Milita, 26,751 for infantry, 1311 for Artillery, and 28,111 for cavalry and the total number of troops for the region would be the added number = 74,429 troops in the little region popup. It would be a basically meaningless number except for reference purposes for some weirdo like me who would like to see something like that.

So, then you could say I had 74,429 troops against the troops attacking which would be a random number using the same base numbers and random rolls for the opposing side. Instead of 48 unit counters.

I kind of like that idea too.  I'd also like to see when you're on the strategic map and listing all the battles fought the total number of casualties.
