unit attachment

Post by econner3 »

I can't get brigades to attach to a divisional general. Sometimes the little plus sign is lighted up, sometimes not. It is never lit to attach a supply unit.

Hi

You are right, you cannot attach supply units to divisions.
Its better to fill the division with combat elements: infantry, arty, cavalry...
Leave the wagons on the stack with the division or divisions so they can supply the whole stack.

The optimal division make up on the game is supposed to be:
- One star leader (a good one [:D])
- 4 artillery elements (no more as the frontage rules don't let more than 4 fire at the same time
- 1 cavalry (for the spoting bonus)
- 1 sharpshooter (for the initiave bonus)
- 11 infantry elements to fill the 18 slots availible per divison.

Any make up similar to this will be a very strong divison.

Regards!

Is this another activation issue?
