Is there a way to disable "March to the sound of the guns"?

[WilliamAmos]

I try and plan attacks but the computer takes control of forces that I have stationed as reserves and throws them into a battle I do not want them to enter.

Was thinking that there might be some way to script out the check that the AI does for "March to the sound of the guns"?

And this question really goes for all the AGEOD games that use this script.

The easy way is to make this units subordinate to a different army. March to the sound of guns primarily moves armies and their subordinate corps, not unattached units.

[WilliamAmos]

I actually detached every unit from all the armies, And it still made them join in attacks. So made no difference.

That should not be possible if they are in a different regions.

Use the evade combat button, that is used to prevent "March to the sound of the guns".

[Pocus]

I don't think an independent stack march to the sound of gun... Is it?

[Durk]

Yes, as an extreme test, make sure no subordinate corps commanders are in these regions, place everyone on green/green with evade combat. This should work for sure.

[WilliamAmos]

I completely removed all armies and corps from the game. And my independent groups still marched to the sound of the guns of other independent groups. I want to do separate battles of independent groups side by side without them joining every fight. And no I do not want to set everyone to passive mode to fight one battle.

Again is their a way to turn this feature off?
