I believe an initiative order is determined each turn, with units in the same corps/army tending to move together.

Note that you can order a unit to 'wait' ('w' key) and that puts it lower on the track, but costs it 3 MPs when if comes up again in the order.

Hmm, the 'w' bit is nice to know.

Anyone know what that colored "Delay" bar does?

It speeds up / slows down the whole battle - movement, combat and messages. Units will plod or race across the screen, while the messages are still too quick to read and digest properly whatever setting I put it on... [;)]
