I took another look at the Civ IV screenshots circulating...
Warpstorm said in another thread that they are probably at max zoom
(e.g. the "Cologne" one).
Now, I see this and there the forest has miniature trees and the warriors ar giants comapred to them...
...like in CIV III.
Now:
Couldn't it be when having zoom "in" that it be more realistic?
When having only few tiles on the screen, the terrain features (forest, mountain, city etc) could be just way bigger as compared to the units?
I mean, the point is that units should be visible,
so I understand that at zoom "out", when lots of tiles are covered,
units must be unrealistically "big",
but when closed in, they can be still big while terrain can be even bigger,
so not having the same compared "ratio"...
I hope I could tell what I mean...
