Yesterday I added the option when hosting a GCM game to use a randomly generated OOB rather than the normal divisions. It's not at all meant to replace what we've been doing, it's just there as an option so you can play more different kinds of battles or use different troops, or not worry about carryover, while still using the GCM-style OOBs, objectives, and battle recording. It's a more casual game type.
You can set how much troops you want to bring to this type of battle separately, by going to one of your divisions and clicking User Administration at the top. To host this kind of game, when you are setting up the game options in the launcher at the bottom you pick "Random Divisions" for Order Of Battle.
The armies created for these random battles are only used in that one battle, next battle they'll be entirely new.
We played Battle 1383 to try it. You can see seal likes having tons of men. Actually there was a bug in the balancer which is why we had 1500 more men, that's fixed now.
