Please stack all units with each other on the same square

For some insane reason the computer has a tendancy to make multiple armies all standing on the same square. So for example: The computer might have 4 peasants, 1 pioneer, 6 Infantry, 1 Hero army. All of which I must consume a movement point to attack. At one point the computer wandered through my territory with a group of peasants all in their own seperate group and I couldn't stop them from ravaging my lands because each 'group of 1' took a seperate movement point.

Now why the computer is able to do this is completely beyond me, but if for some reason this is intended (to keep army sizes at some limit) at least do not make attacking consume a movement point. Though I would simply prefer the computer autogroup their units together and disallow larger than (I think it's 12) units from entering a square together.

Maybe sometimes the stacks are supposed to separate because they are moving to different locations. Anyway, it would still help if they would fight together even if they were moving separately.

Hit to OP: it doesn't waste a movement if you start the fight manually. THEN hit the autoresolve button in the lower-left of the combat screen.

As for size limits, there is supposed to be one, but (A) the is some kind of loophole, because last night I attacked a little city and it was defended by about 40 units. Yikes! Also, the combat went ok, no crashes or anything, so the engine can handle it. So I'd vote for increasing or eliminating the stack limit.
