Thanks for the site!
As I read part of the Tutorial, I think there is a minor error under the topic "Regiment and Brigade Manuevers", in the first line where it reads: "A regiment is made up of 2 to 7 regiments..." Should "regiment" be replaced with "brigade?"

Yep, bigger than elephant poo. Thank you Sir. I'm sure the 'screen men' will jump on that one fast. Thanks for you keen observations. I'm equally guilty, I read it, but didn't see it...'couldn't see the brigade for the regiments' type of thing. :ohmy:

And I think it should be 2-7 companies, not brigade.
2-7 brigades would be a huge regiment! :laugh:
As I read it, I thought it was a description of a brigade which was composed of 2 or more regiments. Re-reading it, still sounds like an effort to describe the brigade of 2-7 regiments rather than a regiment of 2-7 companies.
An infantry regiment was usually composed of 10 companies (although there were sometimes less than 10). A regiment was also called a "battalion" for command purposes. That alone can cause confusion.
Of course, two or more brigades composed a division, and so on and so forth, as you well know.
After spending years reading "papers" from (shall we say "illiterate") undergraduates, I guess I sub-consciously (or is that "unconsciously?") automatically proofread any document placed in front of me!

Sorry 'bout that!

PS: Wait until I see the manual! :woohoo: :woohoo:

I don't think it is called Take Command 3rd Manassas.
