Multiplayer campaign Disappointing

[GBR Warrior]

The multiplayer campaign is a great addition, but it is annoying that you still cannot play battles manually unless the other player takes control of the AI. I just want to be play battles against the AI whilst working cooperatively with my friend.

I wish they would add this feature for both Empire and Napoleon

I think is more possible to make empire 2 than fix that honestly :D

You can play coop battles versus the ai, you and your mate have to be allies. Then when you engage in battle make sure your mate has an army there is in reinforcement range of the the battle. When you start the battle your mate should enter the the battle when your number of units is below 20. When i played it coop from some years ago we vhanged the max units in army and battle to 40 units and house ruled that our armies couldnt be more than 20 units. It worked well, the problem with Empire mp was more the desync issues.

Aye I'm aware of this Loophole as I have used it on Napoleon, but it's awkward to sustain and just a bit inconvenient. Also if the enemy decides to attack your mates smaller army next to you, then your large army reinforcing is just messy.

Don't get me wrong I really appreciate that they've added this, I just wish they could've solved the Coop issue properly as well
