Time Warp With Two Ancient Armies

[mejobo]

Is it possible to expand Time Warp to allow ancient armies to face each other? It seems like it could be nice to access some of the scenario and terrain options only available in Medieval (siege scenarios come to mind in particular) without resorting to modding.

It's feasible but probably not desirable for Slitherine because that would allow for playing Ancients in Medieval without actually having to buy Ancients.

Is there not a restriction already for what DLC are owned across both games? I assumed that would be the case and Time Warp as such would only be usable already if you own both. My assumption being incorrect would certainly explain why Time Warp is a bit limited!

No, you don't have to own Ancients to play Time Warp in Medieval. That is why you cannot have two Ancients armies playing against each other in Time Warp, it would make buying Ancients largely redundant, just as kronenblatt said.

Sorry for necroing the thread, but this thing keeps revolving in my head.
I own both Ancients+DLCs and Medieval+DLCs. I'm more into the medieval period but like to fire an ancient scenario from time to time. And for some reason I don't really want to have both FoG2 and Medieval on my drive (crazy I know).
It'd be really great if we could "install" the Ancients DLCs to Medieval to unlock the Ancients vs Ancients in the time warp. Or get another DLC that unblocks it (idk "Battles of old" or something). I'd be readily throwing another $20-30 into it.
