Setting HQ to subordinate HQ?

Post by jjdenver »

Hi,

If I have the following command structure:
LEVEL 1: Supremo HQ
LEVEL 2: Division1, Division2, Division3

Is there a way to:
Set Supremo HQ as subordinate to Division1?


When I try to do this the checkmark is shaded so I am not able to do this.

Thanks for any help!
JJ

You probably have to break the other links first, assign SHQ to Div1 then reassign Div2 and Div3 to SHQ.

Yes. You cannot create loops in the chain of command :)

You might solve that problem with creating another HQ, let's say HQ5. You assign the Divisions 1 to 3 to HQ5, then assign Supreme HQ to Division 1, and finally reassign Divisions 2 and 3 to Supreme HQ.
