Is it possible to change the order of march? For example, replacing the lead regiment with a stronger regiment...or having an arty battery between two infantry regiments.
Thanks

Re: Order of March
If you change the order of the regiments in the OOB, they will line up (and I believe march too) according to your changes. I know we did a lot of this in Chancellorsville to get all of the units from Jackson's corps to line up properly for his flank attack. I think RebBugler knows the formula to get them to line up exactly as you want.

Re: Order of March
Like LP said, the marching column is the order of regiments in the OOB, change this for your preferences. As far as mixing arty batteries among regiments this would require formation rebuilds as far as I know, and this would be a tricky endeavor, least for me. ADukes and Jim are the primary formation gurus, maybe they'll weigh in if this is feasible.
I changed OOB order of regiments for battle LINE formations as they were designated historically, marching order adhered to those structures.
