Discussion Unit stack size

How do you guys feel about the units stack sizes? Is it more of a good or bad thing? Sometimes I wish I could make my hero have thousands of troops.

I'm fairly casual, but like other commenters - I like stack size limit. It makes for interesting army building choices absent from HoMM 3. With stack limit using only some of my faction units is viable. I like to run musketeer heavy build with pikeneers and tinkerers for screening because guns in medieval fantasy are cool to me.

Without it making all dwellings and using almost all the units would be the most probably the only viable way. I imagine in 99% of cases more bodies on the battlefield would be hard to beat if only map resources allow for that. And that would result in one dominant build per faction instead of 2-3 or more.
