Ottomans not merging armies

[cool201379]

I have noticed with the Persia and Japan patch that the Ottomans do not like to merge their armies together. They keep their armies with 1-4 units per army and they each follow each other. I haven't seen any other AI country do that but the Ottomans. So I am wondering if other people have been experiencing the same problem I am having. I am starting to think that these small armies all moving together are slowing down the game, so speed 5 feels like speed 3 or speed 2.

Those small armies was the only reason I was able to defeat them with two times smaller army. So yeah, this could be a thing. Maybe it's a hidden nerf for Ottomans.

yes already reported, but report it if you want to add pressure, ottomans was the worst case probably because they get too many provinces and forcelimit, but ive seen others too, not to the same scope, and didnt even want to war ming just in case they started too
