What kind of mega-super strategic battles are you referring to — hopefully not battles like 1 Harpy vs 20 Frenzied Behemoths or Ballista without skill vs 100 Corpses? ;)
For all the other "simpler" battles, the current time of 5000+400 is more than enough, at least in the first month of the game for sure :p
P.S. I also forgot about battles against a certain class of Heroes who sit and move the mouse around for half an hour in every battle — as if afraid of losing a single extra Skeleton. :D

no, not those. There are quite a few situations where you have to calculate the retaliation damage to avoid losing not a Skeleton, but a Wyvern, a horse, an Angel, etc. And what's wrong with 20 Frenzied Harpies vs 100+ Corpses? As Vikk used to say: if I know for sure that this army will definitely beat the neutrals, then they should definitely fall. He said that regarding the absence of morale for them. And I ask: if I know for sure that I will crush the neutrals, why should I pay with time? In one day you can kill all the walkers with such an army, but you lose time simply because you can't speed it up due to the huge number of turns. IMO, it's just unfair to take away time for actually playing and fighting, not for picking your nose :)
