This was one of the most requested features for MP games, and was added for SP custom battles too.

One flag controls troop selection, and several armies can use the same one. The other controls your army colours, and this must be unique for each army as it was before.

Upshot, you can fight eight armies of English troops against one another, provided you pick eight different colours for them.
