Watching hours of videos to try to learn various things. Amongst them Spink Akron's C&C tutorial.
So, following that, I open up Shiloh and then try to create Corps structures with Grant's stack. But I cannot get the Corps button active. Can anyone help me? I don't seem to be able to post pictures of the issue in here - sorry.
But basically, if you open up Shiloh then Grant's stack has within it Grant - the Army of Tennessee commander - 6 Divisions and a reserve. The Divisions all have leaders, the reserve doesn't. You can fit at least 4 of the divisions into Grant's direct command (I mean by dragging and dropping them onto The Army of Tennessee) . That would leave Grant with a very powerful army stack and no penalties.
But the Division left out has command penalties, so I try to make it into a Corps - ie; to bring it under Grant's command chain to get rid of the 50% no command chain penalty. But clicking on either Grant or the division (doesn't matter which division you leave out - same result) I can't get a create Corps button to be active.
As far as I can see none of the reasons suggested as to why I can't (in the pop-up) apply. Corps formation is available, I've read, from march '62, and this is April '62. I'm playing version 1.06.3 (which I hope is the very latest version).
Can anyone be bothered to replicate this situation by quickly opening up Shiloh and trying to set up a Corps structure with Grant's stack? Then tell me what I'm doing wrong?
Much appreciated. Thanks.
