A Question of Scale...

I've read the manual, watched a YouTube video and perused the screenshots.

Almost ready to buy.

Just one question. The scale is 75 yards/hex. All the views I've seen appear to be putting units as large as a brigade into just one hex. Not possible. In fact at 75 yards per hex and one man per yard across in double line formation that's just 470 men - about a battalion or a small regiment.

Something isn't right??

Does the game permit putting a whole brigade in a single hex?

the largest unit I've seen is Regt. So thats the largest that will be in one hex as far as I could tell.

Thanks

Every unit is a regiment (or battery, battalion, company or staff), I think the biggest unit is 700 men.

Correct - no brigades in one hex. Just regiments and you can split each regiment to cover two hexes as well.
