Composition of early AotP without corps & divisions

Well I never paid much attention as after Bull Run I usually sit and wait till I finally can use divisions & corps to form the AotP and other Union armies, but I wonder if there is any way that makes sense to form any early Union army that can't use corps & divisions.
So how does your AotP look when it goes for Richmond(Bull Run)?

I put four of the large brigades with 5 or more regiments, each under the command of a one star into McDowell's army. I then add three batteries of 12 or 10 lbers loose for support along with the balloon. This still gives a 10% penalty.

I don't recommend using this to attack the CSA. Any newspaper editor from the game event who would find this bad gets a raw steak and a plate full of uncooked vegetables. If he can eat this meal as is, then maybe I'll listen to his advice on attacking with men who aren't ready.
