too many troops

with all the different additional functions and variables that have been added to the game, a certain few of the illyriad players now easily control over a million troops each. this is causing too great an unbalance in war play. suggest the devs take steps in curbing the amount of troops that can use or work on some way to make war play more equal and not tied to the size of the account....lets make this game more strategy and not just another slug fest game.....perhaps some cost of maintaining an army in the field? or limit of troops a commander can command?or a combination of both these variables? it is  odd that a small group of people can place  millions troops on a square and suffer no consequences but only superior advantage, no military action should be unable to be defeated. other players thoughts?

Don't complain about your opponent have to many troops.  Instead you should just build your own troops.  The fact that you came to the forum and complained that devs should change the game because someone else played it better than you does nothing to get the devs to change it.  If you want to change the way the game is played have a better reason than pointing and going "Look he has more troops than me, this game must be rigged!"

Ah, but building a large army is a strategy, just like any other. Like comrade Stalin used to say: "Quantity has a quality of its own." :p
I really don't see why any random upstarter should deserve an equal chance against an established veteran. Equality, balance and fairness are way overrated game concepts - they're the enemies or realism. Have you ever heard of the term "gamey"?

However, I do agree that larger armies should suffer some disadvantages, as long as these conform to realism. Travel speed, some of the Commanders' leadership skills (like Charge or Concentrated Fire), resistance to magic (if battle magic ever arrives), should perhaps be negatively affected by army size.
Also, there could be a hard limit to how many troops can actually participate in a battle, depending on the terrain. It's an obvious fact that you can squeeze only so many people in a certain area. That number decreases for more rugged terrains. If you have 100k troops on a plain square, they have enough space to move about, but if you try to put the same number on a mountain square, the confined space shouldn prevent them from taking positions. Maybe 50k should be able to fight, the rest would have to wait in reserve.

1 Million troops in 1 account for me it's possible only with T1 spears (which produce less power/hour than T2 ones). You may have 500k T2 spears in one account imo, average 300k-350k T2 Inf/Ranged, 200K-250k T2 Cav... those are the very max numbers for 1 account from what i know. 

actually using zombie accounts limits the using of account sitting as an alliance tool. it is to the advantage to the alliance to use shared active accounts but i question at this point that sitters have use of others military, it brings imbalance in war play, to have the possibility of millions of troops to be under control of one individual is creating gods in the game.  there are also many other variables when using combinations of functions that are creating massive armies in the game. the game hopefully add other variables and functions to limit the advantages......waiting breathlessly for battle magic.....wink wink to the devs and nice job to the devs in crafted weapons and armour but the game should beware of what is unforeseen consequences resulting in the game additions...strategy is the fun part of this game, not mindless same play....by the way its a great game, just pointing out a trend i am noticing
