I have a question for the designers of AOE/ROR. It would seem to me from a programming point of view that the following would be a minor adjustment to the game code while allowing much better multiplayer gameplay: allowing one ally to transfer his units to another ally's command. Although this can theoretically be done clumsily w/priests,(not if Macedonian), why not have the option to do this easily (a button/mouseclick).

Yuck. I don't like that idea at all. (No offense intended.) It seems like it would lead to "all-powerful" armies and disrupt the play balance. Can you imagine an army with Hittite seige, Egyptian priests and chariots, and Carthaginian acadamy and eles? If you want all the units, why don't you just play with a full tech tree?
