Faster way to build armies

[Knout]

Is there a faster way to build large amies than mashing the macro builder's button like a ♥♥♥♥♥♥ ?

In 1.1 they mentioned an army thing in the macro manager, but were kind of vague. Maybe that's going to be like an EU IV army creator? Mentioned naval as well.

It's boring af when you have to manually build 10 x 80 sized cohort. I can't understand how they missed this basic feature..

I agree, it is extremely annoying, and I end up just spamming mercs because of how lazy I am with it.

You can recruit directly to a army. Create a 1 stack, and then recruit whatever you want to it, then they'll travel directly to it.

Using mercs is usually ♥♥♥♥♥ as the attrition decimates them

Oh I know, but sometimes when I have to create armies of 30k, manually clicking each one and having to manually count because there is no really good way to tell is just annoying. Something like in EU IV where you make a set army, click once, and boom would be nice.

fair, or ctrl click is 10, shift click 5 or somthing. to be fair thats probably somthing they'd put in if suggested

That's how I always make them. Not very convenient if you have a huge empire I guess.

If we have to suggest this to become real then there is a HUGE problem at Paradox Studio.

This is the correct answer. Extremely easy to make a new army. Build one unit, or break one unit off of an existing army. Open recruit-to-army, click away

Yea man, some of us do computers

I've tried the 1.1.0 beta and nothing changed about this...

[Brakiros]

Uhh there is a rally mechanic for building armies you know right? That's already been covered that's your faster way

[xXxHussarxXx]

Hopefully they'll have a feature where you can choose to make 1,5,or 10 units with 1 click.
