Will the real Duke please stand up

Post by 52ndOx »

Wellington with 72000 men in the Army of the Low Countries sends orders to his 3rd Corps commander, who has 22000 men and is - Wellington! :o

No wonder the Prince of Orange looks a bit confused. :?

Yea, haha. That's just an OOB thing. The game doesn't actually have a way to have one officer have multiple commands, so for officers that do, you need one for each level of command.(In this case one representing him as an army commander and one representing that he also commanded the 3rd corps)

Its one of those abstractions we talked about. Just think of them both as Wellington, one representing his army command, and one representing his corps command.

Yes. Its just a bit of fun.

Shouldn't really be designated 3rd Corps anyway, its just the Anglo-Allied Army Reserve, which was directly under Wellington.
