Merging madness

I know this is not an issue high on the list. But at some point it would be nice for the merging madness to be addressed. I find merging and seperating armies to be insanely frustrating. When I want to merge it frequently takes multiple attempts. And then out of the blue when I'm just trying to move different stacks in the same region to different regions, it constantly keeps giving me the merge pop up. My GF is sitting here chuckling at me as I yell at the screen that "NO I don't want to merge, I want these armies to move to different regions hundreds of miles apart.....$&(%*)^)%#$"

Can someone tell me the official way to merge!

As far as I know, dragging one army onto another flag's seems to do the trick. :D

But yes, I agree, merging needs to be improved (maybe have it as an army command?)

yes it is indeed frustrating. I add my vote to that one too to bump it up in the priority list.

Plus one.
On one occasion I caused a CTD because I lost my cool and started clicking frantically. Just when it decided to do a split, I clicked on another army, and bam-game gone.

It is workable and not always a problem, but when it is it is a real pain. I understand that there is a brief delay, but it would be nice if there was an easy point to click on to bring up the unit list for transfer.

The development of a "Stack Management" window is scheduled (something like in Great Invasions, for those who know this game).

This new feature and the Combat Logs should be the main job for new version 1.06. :thumbsup:
