Often when multiple armies merge into one fight, the field gets very cramped and becomes more of a meat grinder than anything resembling strategy or tactics. I think that to resolve this issue, the size of the battle map could increase depending upon how many units are involved, the more units, the larger the battle map. This would mean there is always enough space to battle strategically without ever having a map way too big for the number of units in the fight.

Would this be more to your liking?
