its possible to handle a ton of *units* at the same time if you use a techniqe where one unit is a block of say 25 or so, that would cut down the pathcfinsing lag, but it would require heavy scripting to get anything resemboling 'not ugly/buggy as hell'

And that gets out of hand real fast, just with a five-man script. Trust me
You also have the trouble of weaponry for the unit (max weapons for a unit = 16) and large blocks of infantry cannot just 'flow' around an obstruction if they're counted as one unit

Well bro, you have fun trying to make your mod....

Spring can handle the unit count but you'd need to have a builder with a huge range to allow it to retarget quickly enough to pump these out in five minutes. Also there won't be much of a late game since you'll hit the unit limit very quickly that way and that many units won't fit through any slightly narrow point in a map.

The total war series worked with gorups of units (platoon, whatever). so the pathfinding would be less.
Spring won't crash due the number of polies (will someone ever listen to Caydr?) But the pathfinding will eat your CPU.

thats because most are in 3do format, tris in s3o format runs much more smoothly

It may however, lag...

this concept go back 20 years in past when strategis games are icon in papers
i prefere to think about the taspring precursor concept =join the rts to the fps
