Maybe it possible to have this option when u host games?MP
Xample i host a 4v4 40k.8 join, the AI chooses 16 units for each plyin within a max of 4 units?
This could also be done for comp battles,but i think a seperate league for random units sound be done!This way only those with skills to addapt and understand units will gain any honour?
Just a idea http://www.totalwar.org/ubb/eek.gif

I have NEVER seen the AI pick more than 4 of anything in custom battles when I give it a random army choice. Heck, most of the time, even when it has 25,000 koku, the AI *STILL* fails to fill in all 16 slots!

I think there is no danger of not defacto honoring a 'unit max' with the AI as it stands.

Well that wouldn't be a bad idea.

But as the system stands today, try to check "random army" in the custom battle menu. As Vanya said the AI will get a stupid army every time. On expert level you must give him at least +5000k more than you to have something that *may* look like a very challenging MP game.

LOL I once took 5000 for myself and gave the AI 30,000 and a random army pick.

AI still took only 11 units... and I won.
