Friends and I are trying to just play a simple 3v3 comp stomp in medieval 2 total war over LAN. Maybe we are absolutely retarded but we cannot for the life of us figure out how to add CPU players in a LAN game. You can do it easily under single player but in multiplayer it is either impossible or completely illogical.

Yes I've tried googling but haven't found anything relating to adding cpu players in medieval 2 or anything saying you can't either.
