Can't have closed teams with auto teams selected

[RedWizard]

Hi,

Whilst I'm not sure this is strictly a technical problem, this seems as good a place as any to post it.

I'm trying to start a skirmish game. I've chosen a map thats rated 'max 6 players'. I then chose my race as Space Marines, the first computer player as Orks and closed the remaining 4 computer players. However, when I start the game I get the message:

"Can't have closed player slots with auto teams selected"

I don't know what auto teams are or how to unselect them. The rather lame manual is no help, having just a single sentence on the subject of Skirmish games. I tried searching google but no luck. Can anyone help?

Thanks in advance
Simon

Change your teams selection to "players select teams"

auto teams takes the players and puts them into teams...automatically...so...autoteams :p. As Techie said, change it to "user set teams" to play with closed slots.
