Stacking

from Elemental Forums

The maximum stack outside a city is 12. I don't know if there is a limit inside a city, but I cornered one of the computer opponents in his last city earlier today, he has 35 units. This results in some bizarre situations, with catapults stacked for instance. Also, given the current state of the game, the AI doesnt appear to actaully have too pay for any of those units.

Question;

1. What is the stacking limit in a city?

I haven't hit one...

But do you know if there is a way to combine two stacks whose total is less than 12 that are on the same game square WITHOUT using movement points?

Ideally the developers should have used randomly generated battlefields which can then be scaled to allow for larger and larger battles.  It's terrible bouncing into these game limitations knowing the battlefields are tooo small.
