Just another brief question. I've heard several people on this board talking about how they got armies around 500 or even 1000 men. How can I get such an army. My biggest armies re around 50, 60 men! Is it all a matter about waiting in a fort with a commander and gathering troops?

The larger the maps the larger the armies become for you and your enemies and it will take time. The larger maps usually take longer so I recommend playing the larger maps with victory points. Also don't play the water nations because most computer opponents lack the intelligence to organize large armies on attacking water provinces.

Something to remember is that large mundane armies will starve unless you have Nature magic to give them supply items.

It's rarely necessary or efficient to have armies 500+ strong. Using magic you can get the same job done with far less troops.
