Quick Battles when your opponent doesn't have all the modules you have

[chiquichops]

I have a problem, looking for advice. Setting up a quick battle in CMFI and my opponent doesn't have Rome to Victory, I do. How do I not choose incompatible forces? He set the parameters to the battle but, when I picked my men, I seem to have picked something incompatible with his game. I figured I could check on the forces list in the manual but this doesn't seem to solve my problem.

Is it possible to uninstall or deactivate RtV? Then set up the game. And then reinstall the module.

Yes it's a pain, but so is having to guess what forces you can use and having to start over again and again. They don't like to make things easy or convenient for their customers.

Thanks @Bulletpoint . It's an idea that had crossed my mind but I have a couple of other pbem games on the go so it'd be a real pain.

Ah, but I get you, uninstall for setup only ... Hmm

If you press spacebar in the force selector it will show you which module units are from

:0 thanks! That is a bit easier isn't it!

The things you discover by accidentally mashing the keyboard...

Typically I get around this by having my opponent set up the game.

Thanks for pointing that out Hapless. Nice catch.
Not sure if I would have found it because I usually don't smash my keyboard until I'm watching my tanks blow up during the movie phase.

Thank you for the tip Hapless
Still discovering things about this game and I haven't even tried the editor that much!
