Question about ally mechanics in AOE2 DE

This is going to kinda be weird deep dive but please bear with me. Back in the olden times (previous version of AOE2 and even the previous AOE2 HD release) I would always play single player skirmish with 4 or 5 other AI opponents. I'd ally with whomever was AI that was clearly winning. Then build a bunch of bombard towers all inside their city. Then when the other AI opponents were all dead I'd switch him back to an enemy and the bombard towers would kill his city from the inside and I'd win. It was hilarious and I loved doing this as a kid. I wanted to play a game of AOE2 DE recently and try to recreate this.

Then in game I realized I couldn't. I couldn't even ally with AI opponents at all. The option to do so is greyed out and doesn't react when I try to press the ally button at all. Is there something I'm missing here. Is there a way to turn that on. Or what if anything am I doing incorrectly here if this feature is still in game?
