I think we've said previously that we've been playing with having lots and lots of individual creatures on a single screen. I know I watched a big battle between elves and skeletons one day that one of the programmers was running in DM mode to test things and it all seemed very Myth-esque, almost, and quite impressive.
I think part of the trick is also to find a way that each creature model doesn't have to run individual AI routines, as well, at least as far as I understand it.
So, yes, big battles. Whether or not the RTS-like ability to control stuff on a unit level will be possible, I'm not even sure. Too early to comment much.
