Enevhar Aldarion
Oh Wise One
Is it true that optional squad size research impacts event buildings that provide troops negatively? I believe those are unit based and not based on squad size. The AWs are based on squad size, so that wouldn't be impacted.
Although, if the tourney and spire have nothing to do with squad size then I guess this doesn't really matter??
If you mean the Vallorian and Orc Strategist buildings, or the Evolving building we just got that gives mages, or the Brown Bear, the number of troops given by them is only modified by chapter and evolution level. Nothing else will increase their output.
Also, those troop instants that we can win in events are based on your world map squad size, so the more squad researches you do, the more troops those will give you.
