"Ghost" countries

I think it would be cool to have the ability to pick a second country as an opponent in private games, which you have control over. This will give you the ability to test many things out, whether it be how units fair against stacks, how certain strategies work, or test out scenario units and events.

Use an alt.

Well, if we read this again:

...how units fair against stacks, how certain strategies work, or test out scenario units and events.

you can realize that alts are usually lower ranks (most frequent ranks of alts are 0-5), which means anything from above cannot be perfectly tested because an alts doesn't have all needed upgrades and strategies for testings.
Whatsmore, most alt accounts doesn't even have a Premium, which means you can do only the tests without General unit, which is pointless for the players who play competitve games as Europe is.
And even your alt has a General unit, it probably doesn't have all needed General upgrades, which also affects on the outcome of testing


One of the most interesting stuff in competitive gameplay are:
- How units fair against stacks (battles in general)
- How each strategy work (attacking, defending, ranges)
- Expansions
Anything from that cant be fully done without General unit and it's upgrades.

Also, isn't it a bit complicated to open a new browser, find an atWar and log in with your alt account just to do few testings with your main account?
I think this would make plenty of things easier and better for understanding

You could maybe not be a weirdo and ask friends to play with you?

Support Great idea nero

Since non-prems can't make private games, this would be biased towards premium users
