I was refering to the lack of ability to choose what your troops have... Who is to say that I can't train troops with slightly less than optimal equipment to save time and money? Why does every soldier have to have the exactly specified equipment? Why can't I give a particular soldier better equipment if I can afford it? Sure, I can train overall inferior or superior troops, but the grades come in big chunks (in terms of abilities), without any option to go into the middle ground...

Hmm? I never played the demo so I don't know how it is different. But in the game, for Ulm for example, you get to choose whether to build infantry with chainmail (lighter, less resource intensive) or plate (heavier, more resource intensive), and you get to choose whether they carry mauls, morningstars, flails etc.
If anything, the problem with national troops is not that you can't choose how to outfit them, it's that it doesn't matter how you outfit them except in the very early game, because after that they will all get owned by magic and summons and supercombatants no matter what gear they have.
