Percentages in Brigade Order(s) Windows???

Post by warpacman »

I know I should just RTFM closer, but I can't find what the Percentages mean in the Brigade Orders like 10% for forming Line or 90% for forming Column etc?

Thanks Brothers (and Sisters I hope!)

I know there are some Women wargamers out there somewhere right?

If we're talking line and column formations that's not a brigade order (left side of the screen, in the commanders' hierarchy window), but rather a unit command, and involves the buttons at the lower right. If so, the answer is at the bottom of p. 24 of the manual: those numbers are the %chance of changing formation without the penalty of losing remaining movement points.
Michael Jordan plays ball. Charles Manson kills people. I torment eager potential customers by not sharing screenshots of "Brother Against Brother." Everyone has a talent.
