Hello,
others things to note, about direct control of allies:
1. your command and control resource pool is required to be expended to give orders to allies forces. 2. more importantly, I have noticed when taking over AI allies their moral always starts at "dismal". Probably for campaign balance. Their moral may be slowly built up, but even over a campaign, the troops remain "brittle", with all the issues of low moral troops.
I started playing GTOS by taking over the AI control, but now just let them do their own thing under AI control. With AI control of allies, in my observation, the AI will attack, make moves, etc over the course of the campaign. The move that the AI allies make, may not be related to your operational goals, though. Under a perspective that your allies are allies, not subordinates, with their own operational goals it plays as well, and as bad, as the AI opposing forces.
What I find most annoying, with AI control of allies, is if a tactical battle resolves to only AI opponents you have to take control of your allies directly for that tactical battle. It does not self resolve.
regards,
