how to assign one army to multiple frontlines easily?Or bind two frontlines of borders from different countries together?

Sometimes you have more than 1 country on your frontline...and in order to deploy on all of the frontlines,i had to choose divisions manually...how to do this the easy way?

There is no real easy way. you can make multiple frontlines for one army, everything get assined to the first per default. what i usually do is split hold ctrl and click on the second.

Click set line, click border of first country. Click set line again and click border of second country. The unit now has both borders as it's frontline.

but when I do this,the army automatically assigns all the divisions to the first frontline

AH, I see. Sadly that is probably the AI deciding to deploy poorly.

The AI doesnt decide anything in this case. It awlays assings everything to the first one while you draw/click the first one.
As i said the S key helps a lot.

The AI is the one deciding to only deploy to the first front only.

No it isn't. It is the AI putting your army on the ONE frontline there is. Frontlines are always separate.

oh yes i think you are right,so it is best to have more armies

[Mansen]

Yes. Divide your armies up so that they can comfortably defend each separate front line. More if you expect them to advance.

its just strange,because there are no smaller command levels currently in game,and it feels just cringe for an army to task with the mission to invade luxemburg.

Well you CAN place the same army on multiple front lines - But not in the traditional sense. Select as many units as you need, then hold CTRL and left click the line.

The army will basically run as many simultaneous orders as you wish, but it gets pretty confusing quickly. And since Generals have better traits, but only support 24 divisions, you might as well use more general sized armies, instead of giant Marshall ones.

nope not as far as i know, and i wished it was there ...
I'm not saying the system is good, but after getting used to it, it works pretty well, even on the fly.

.... Well there is just no function for the AI to judge what it needs in this situation. You can call it a missed feature, sure, but saying an AI decided soemthing when it clearly is just doing nothing is just wrong. You know an AI does not have an intent in intself, right?

I figured it out! There's a button called "Division assignment mode". Press that with your divisions that you want to move selected, and click your second frontline.
