    Default Show ally?

    Hi guys

    In MTW2 there is a button for showing all of your allies - you click it and it flashes all of your units one colour and then flashes the enemies red I believe.

    Is there something like this in RTW?

    Thanks

    Not that i know

    Anyways - allies in RTW are only a little bit more friendly enemies at the end

    The diplomacy in RTW is one of the weaker parts and alliances are just there
    to keep your enemies in sight.

    hi guys

    Thanks for the responses - I think I didn't write my question properly though.

    In MTW2 during the battles you can click that button which will flash your allies... but also your own men, and the enemies in different colours. I find that useful to spot where the key battles are if line is spread wide.

    Also good to spot any fleeing enemies I can rout with my cavalry.

    So I'm guessing there is no way of 'flashing' my enemy during the battle so I can quickly see where their units are?

    Yes CD is right.
    also making an Alliance is not "that" important in RTW
    they betray you alot ! (atleast they do in my game )
    M2TW is a little bit better with diplomacy.
    ow and a awnser on your question.

    No i don't think there is something like that.

    No, not in RTW

    Edit:

    you can always see your enemy units (and allied units) on the little mini battle map.
