Hi, I'm new to the boards and I have a few questions

What do the numbers on a commander mean? For example, you might have Thomas J Jackson 4-2-2. What would the 4-2-2 be?

Also, how do you unfix somebody? I've had times where I have a set of men in a city or something then all of a sudden they get fixed. And then they don't unfix ever. How do I stop that from happening?

The numbers are Strategic Rating (higher the better) Attack rating, then Defense rating. The
higher the strategic rating the better the chance for a leader to be activated (unfixed). if you
play with the activation rules off then the only troops that are fixed are Fortress troops and
those troops who will be unfixed by an event or date. All fixed troops can become unfixed
if attacked. Can, but not always.

Welcome to the forum. I hope I answered your questions satisfactorily. There are many
on this board with far more knowledge and suggestions on the game than I have.

Some units are fixed or locked in place right from the time they appear, like most fortress garrisons. If you add new units to the stack that is locked, then these units will also appear locked in place. Just drag and drop the units without the locked in place icon into their own separate stack. That should unlock them.

so, for example, I got the Army of the arkansas going to memphis and then I parked them with the Memphis garrison and they got locked. So I remove them away from the Memphis garrison to unlock them?

That's correct.
