The computer might pick your army for you after you choose a faction and indicate the type of army you want: cav heavy, inf heavy, skirmisher heavy, etc. Maybe the host can still set a money level, but it's one less thing for a joiner to consider if the money level is the same on all games. Choosing a game could be as simple as looking at the era selected, the number of players involved, the terrain type and if it's arcade or not arcade. As far as I'm concerned, this would all be an improvement over the way online is currently done because it would eliminate "gaming the unit stats and ungrades" or picking a particular map because it offers a particular advantage.
??!?!?!?
