Adapting the Austerlitz OoB
« le: 30 janvier 2011, 14:44:30 pm »
A mate and I want to fight the Austerlitz scenario but we don't like the enormous corps of Soult - which comprisses 4 divisions.  Given that LG doesn't yet have divisional command, are we better to change the OoB so that each division is a 'corps' and the french player will thus have more discretion in committments?  Other/better ideas?

That's what I'd do Harry, essentially the new Corps Commanders are Divisional Commanders

You can detach some regiments in Soults corps.

I often think of having 11 [large] Divisions, rather than 11 Corps, but some are Corps, while others are [smaller] Division sized.
