: If you can manage to do that without crashing the game,
: sure.
It can be done. Project Magma's "Mazzarin's Demise IV" has around 5000 units. All the units couldn't appear at once, but it's possible to fit about 600 units on a map at one time.
I've done color maps as good as some of clem's or Malkavian's, but they are time consuming for me and may take a week or longer to finish one good map.
I'm not entirely sure that I'll follow through with it, but if I do, it'll probably be based on the movies rather than the books just because they visually provide a better picture of what happened.
