Is there any possible way of setting up and watching a battle that is contested only between computer players? I know it sounds boring and all but it's to help me with some AAR type thing I'm doing.
Any help is much appreciated. Thanks!
Hands off game?

Welcome, vertigo.
As far as I know, you can only make a replay of one of your own battles, then watch that.

Welcome to the Org, vertigo!
Tony is essentially correct. In MTW, there's unfortunately no real way to set up battles between two AI players and then watch them fight each other.

Re: Hands off game?
Conceivably, people could send you saved battles you could watch. Not AI vs AI, but someone could act dumb to make it look like it.
Re: Hands off game?
I suppose you could deliberately invade an enemy province that is about to be attacked by rebels, and then keep your troops well back so the enemy and the rebels duke it out. Also, I think there is some trick that allows you to change factions midway through a campaign. I'm not sure about that so don't quote me on it. If it is possible, then you could deliberately provoke rebellions in your own provinces, switch to one of your enemy factions, and then do the invade-a-province-about-to-rebel thing. If you saved the game at the right time, you could do this again and again, and see different rebel forces each time.
Not quite what you asked for, but maybe close enough?
In those simple times there was a great wonder and mystery in life. Man walked in fear and solemnity, with Heaven very close above his head, and Hell below his very feet. God's visible hand was everywhere, in the rainbow and the comet, in the thunder and the wind. The Devil too raged openly upon the earth; he skulked behind the hedge-rows in the gloaming; he laughed loudly in the night-time; he clawed the dying sinner, pounced on the unbaptized babe, and twisted the limbs of the epileptic. A foul fiend slunk ever by a man's side and whispered villainies in his ear, while above him there hovered an angel of grace . . .

Cant you just go on custom battle, create the attacking and defensive forces and only pick a general for yourself and withdraw at the start of the battle....
MTW does have custom battle like STW yeah ?
