Hm, an interesting idea indeed. That would be quite meaningful, although it would somewhat defeat the idea of that promo. Maybe raising the limit, but not preventing overcrowding as a whole...
Agreed- I was thinking along the lines of about 45-55 units. I play on a high difficulty, and the computer keeps enormous stacks that are able to overwhelm even the best-trained 15 unit stacks. A defender has a big advantage, esp if he has a good transport network. He can keep his stacks in his cities, and attack with individual units until the invading force is too weak to advance. I like the idea that it takes a Great General to successfully invade a peer-strength opponent.
I'm not a modder but I can muck about in XML a bit. Where is the file that controls crowding? I looked for it under the file with the other negative promos, but it wasn't there.
