Hi

In M2TW, one is limited by a number of units that can be stacked together (2 rows -- so, I guess, about 20 units). By "units" I mean regiments, battalions, or whatever "groups of people" were called in those days, which you can see on the bottom of your screen when you click on an army.

AI, on the other hand, can stack more units than a human player can. Thus, I am sure I saw Mongols having about 2.5 rows of units (so, about 25 units).

Why does this happen, and is there anyway to increase the maximum amount of units that can be put together?

Also, when you have two fully stacked armies fighting for you on a battle screen, you can only control one army (the other must be controlled by friendly AI or ot will just sit inactive beyond the map boundary). Is there anyway to change that too?

The AI can only have 20 same as the player but its 9 across each row (2 full rows of 9 + 2 cards on the third row) whereas the player shows 10 across.

It should be that you can push a little 'arrow' on the battle screen and see another slide of 20 cards, so you can order them around too, i mean why not. Be awesome

Ouch... I should have actually counted before posing :no: . Sorry!

But, yes, would be great to manage a few armies on the battle screen...
