ghost armies are for units not in the map at the start of the scenario, use a normal army.

no, I dont want them to be in the scenario butr none will select to be in the ghost army. I press ghost army and go and check which units are in the ghost army but none are selected.

Here is what you can do KingHades. I'll have to admit, the Ghost Army was stumping me until I loaded an ES Scenario and looked at their trigger setup:

1.) Make sure that no units are selected (this is VERY important, you'll see why later)

2.) Open the Army editor and type in the name of your ghost army. Hit 'ghost army' and it will show up on the list.

3.) In your trigger menu, use the effect 'Army Deploy'. It will ask you which army, select your ghost army. It will also ask you what units should be in the army. Select the unit you want and type in the amount you want of that unit. Voila! You've just made your ghost army!

The ghost army is a feature that allows you to manipulate the army feature without actually placing the units on the map. The scenario 'spawns' the units, and names them with the name you specified. This allows you to play with the armies and give them instructions before they are created. Think of it as tagging units for future reference. Hope this helps!

yeah, you can't select what units you want in the army without triggers...
