Multi player Rise of Rome Custom Armies ?

[Matimio]

I am curious if you can use custom created armies to play against a friend via the Multi-Player Server? I just bought this game, I am a big warhammer player, but I am currently living out of the Country and can't play Warhammer with my Warhammer Buddies and this looks like the next best thing... I haven't seen the Multi-player interface currently downloading new patch and Rise of Rome as we speak

Basically, can someone please explain the dynamic of Multi-Player Games, choosing Specific Opponents, and using Custom Armies... Thank you very much

This is a very brief explanation ...

From the main menu - Open the Digital Army Generator, select an army and create it, then save it.

Then from the main menu - Open the Multiplayer option, and issue a challenge, using the historical/custom/Digital Army Generator and pick your army and select the type of map you wish to fight on.

To play against a particular opponent use the password feature, this will stop others picking up the challenge, let your opponent know the password by email or by sending a Private Message on this forum.

Your friend can then fight you and use the army that he has created using the DAG.


You'll pick the rest up as you go along I think ...

OK?

Thank you. Got it all figured out. Wanted to know quickly because friend was going to buy the game and we wanted to make sure we could play against each other with custom armies.
