Getting de-sync errors in battle

Me and my mate have been playing a multiplayer campaign for some time now reaching an impressive turn 57 but all of a sudden everytime we go into battle we get a desync error in the set up stage resulting in the game having to be returned to the main menu. As far as I am aware nothing different has changed so am completely stumped on why this has started to happen all of a sudden.


Hoped you guys might have any ideas for why it's happening?

I had same problems when I played with my friend. I think it is ram problem, that your or your friend windows cannot get enough ram to play perfectly in battles.
Also your or your friend singleplayer campaigns battles works perfectly? Or there are too problems?

Hey, writing to late, but maybe someone else can use this tip:

Me and my friend got same problem as you. In some time we cant play normal battles (error with desync..). So we try to change our save games and its working.

Both ppl need to go to VISTA: "C:\Users\YOUR PC\AppData\Roaming\The Creative Assembly\Napoleon\save_games_multiplayer" and there find last your save game. If yours and his saves are not in match with size, pick up the larger one and send it to other person. Than replace it and launch the game. It will work fine.

Remember - for sure, make a backup of your save.
