Better allied army coordination.

[LordHarromont]

First if all, if this is already a thing, and I'm just not smart enough to find the option, I am sorry.

Can there be an option to order your allies to attach their army to yours? And also, to allow you to attach your army to theirs if you're helping them? Like in CK2?
To me, allies are like the primary way for a small realm to punch above its weight class, so to have absolutely no coordination between the forces is a big deal.

Again, if this is already an option, and I've just not found it yet, I am sorry.

They gotta fix it sometime. I think the devs know the current ai ally logic is a joke though so hopefully it comes soon.

Here's what I want to see based on other paradox games:
-A button to direct and attach one ally to an army stack like in ck2
-A button to direct one ally to a barony and siege it down if it's an enemy barony
-A menu that shows all your current allies and a button to select what their focus is during a war, attach, attack, siege like eu4 has for subjects but for allies
-An option to set armies from specific rally points to automatically do x like in imperator rome, possibly in the same menu as the one above
-The ability to assign a specific number of your total army + specific men at arms and knights to a specific rally point possibly in the same menu as above
-An option to prefer or disable using transports for that army


If the first 2 are implemented things should be as good as ck2, With the first 4 things could be better than eu4, and with all these implemented it would vastly outshadow all the best parts of troop control in Ck2, Eu4 and Imperator Rome.

If they change how wars work they might need a button to switch siege owners but the current system is simple enough that it doesn't matter.
