Chain of Command

Sat Jun 05, 2010 9:37 pm

Well, here is another question (I'm only making it because I couldn't find the answer anywhere in the forum):

How will the Chain of Command work? I mean, will there be a special command for 4-star leaders?

I ask this because considering that armies will be a lot bigger now than in the other games, there should be something like an army group, theatre or the like being commanded by 4-stars leaders, because in AACW (only game of Ageod I own) a 4-star general is almost the same as a 3-star only that it's higher in the command chain, yet the general con only command armies. Will VGN be something like:

4-Star: Army Groups
3-Star: Army
2-Star: Corps
1-Star: Division

Or rather:
4-Star: Theatre commander (as in Commander of all Land, Naval and Air forces in a certain area, like the Balkans for example)
3-Star: Army Group
2-Star: Army
1-Star: Corps

Or maybe I'm simply wrong and it's something totally different that cannot be disclosed.

Thanking in advance for a response and giving my greetings,

The Chain of command in VGN features a Commander in Chief (one for Land, one for Naval), Army Commanders, Corps Commanders and then Colonial Leaders. The CoC is in the end simpler to handle than in AACW because a stack commanded by an army general is the Army, as a whole (not as in AACW or NCP). Corps sized units exists, and they can be commanded by a named leader (a corps commander) or left without one (we assume there is an average, unknown one in command). If you were to detach a corps sized unit from your army, it would means he is operating as an independent corps, not as a corps detached from the army but still under the Army's Command.
