| Robert, I thought the AI firing was addressed some time ago. Looked through the changes files and found Changes for Campaign Chancellorsville 1.01 - AI firing is now by stack instead of by unit. This was 2009 according to HPS website. Not sure if this is offensive fire only or includes defensive fi... |

| Thanks General Miller. A little hard to understand but I suppose it should somehow limit the possible command bonus than can roll down a command chain and also should punish command chains without proper staged command levels. I do not have the OOB for 1st Bull Run but afaik as the corps system was... |

| Are you sure? I see Ashby in 1st Kernstown as a Conf. brigade leader and he shows 9 hexes command range what is 3 times that of the brigade command range. Testing showed that it works with the shown command range, 9 hexes OK but 10 hexes means detached. You are right. Yet apparently from Piedmont o... |

| Something else I have found is cavalry officers show 3x the normal command range for their command level. This is their actual command range, have checked that in several games. Whether these are by design or a bug I don't know as it currently is not mentioned in the documentation. They seem to hav... |

| Gentlemen, I'm playing an Antietam 3.0, 40 turn Meeting Engagement near Bull Run. My Union troops under McDowell are ALL well within the area marked as his headquarters range but two of five Division commanders are detached even though they were within range too. Anyone have an explanation? McDowel... |

The only thing I can think of is they weren't in the radius of McDowell when the check was made which is at the beginning of the turn but moved into his radius during the turn?
Your information is kind of sparse.

| Gen. Meyer, sir <salute> Joe, maybe an easy fix would be to make the flags a neutral icon so no one knows who owns it or remove the flags from the files so they don't appear? This would need to be agreed to by both parties as a house rule but would keep this less obvious to who holds the objective.... |

| What commanders, and at what distance, can assist a unit in recovering from a rout? Some examples: 1. Can any Army or Corps Commander that is within one hex of a routed unit, assist them in recovering from a rout, or must they be in the chain of command of that routed unit?

| I had most of this playset, too. Burnside bridge, the cannon, mortar, redoubt... and the soldiers, of course. I'd build a two-story house out of Lincoln logs and set the bluebellys to defending. As we (the Confederacy, of course 8) ) began to attack, I would roll out the South's secret weapon. I ha... |
