Missing 3rd division of 4th RC in 43 campaign

I'm starting the 43 campaign as the Soviets, and while looking over the units noticed that on the Finish border, with the 7th Ind Army there is an anomaly.

Two of the divisions (272RD & 368 RD) are listed as being components of the 4th Rifle Corps. But there is no third division for them to join up with. Is this by design, or a mistake? They will form a new corps with any third division, but you have to pay the 10 AP.

I remember in the 41 GC the Germans had two regiments of division in Finland.

Scenario designer forgot about game realities and created this corps consisting of two divisions and a brigade. I have reported this some time ago. There is no other solution than to use additional division and form a new corps.

It might be different for components of a supposedly existing rifle corps but you can form a corps from two rifle divisions and a rifle brigade.

Yeah, you can form a new corps from 2+1, and the brigade is immediately upgraded to a division. An existing corps can be recombined from 3 divisions only.

I've found five or six other partial corps scattered around. The really bad part is that transferring a division that is part of a corps cost extra AP. I think 10 or 11 when failing ldr check.
