When configuring armies, which is more efficent? Less but larger units? Or multiple smaller units?

I am playing Ulm, and each commander can have 50 units. I am trying to figure out the most efficient way to configure them. Smaller units tend to perform better, and I can have them go after multiple targets, but, I have to cast Legions of steel more often (or other unit buffs for indie mages).

With less units, you free these mages up for combat.

Any thoughts?

Also, as Ulm, I have a very productive item factory going, and can afford to kit out regular commanders in full battle gear. I have a couple BP ulm commanders in the hall of fame. Anyhow, I send these guys into battle, normally placing them behind a block of infantry with the same orders as the infantry infront of them.

How effective would that block of infantry be if I set them to "Guard Commander" instead of "attack Closest". Would they perform the same if the commander was set to "attack closest"?
