Seems to me that what is needed is a change in tactics. No matter how much people would like it to be true helicopters are not flying tanks. The desert is also the worst place to deploy helicopters as there is little to no cover for them ...

Not exactly a bug but more of a map issue. <br/>

The bulk of the city should be in hex 111,184, not 112,184 as it is now. <br/>

<t> Thanks Symple, that helps with the army commanders. The other thing that interests me is finding where my two-stars are located so I can create corps. Sometimes my 1861/62 corps commanders get sent off on something by themselves and I forget if they're out in the middle of Missouri or West ...

listing generals by seniority

How can I come up with a list of generals by seniority? I want to see who/how many people are ahead of Grant and some of my better generals, but the best I can find is listing them by their skills.
