2 blockade zones and can only get 20%. Am I missing something?

I have two understrength Cavalry Divisions to counter raiders. I have secured HF. As soon as I get the supply situation fixed, I'll start the next offensive. Lyons and Grant are at HF.

Then I redid the move with an HQ unit stacked together with that unit. Finally I tried it with that unit, an HQ and a Hospital. The HQ and Hospital cohesion bonus did stack, just as the pontoon and engineer entrenchment bonus stacked.

This is not something that I would generally do in an offensive for obvious reasons. Once I had three Generals who were promotable in one stack. So I had to choose to stop the attack and make some 2-stars or ignore their accomplishments and keep the initiative. Poor fellows.
So I use whatever 2-stars I have. Grant gives a pretty good bonus to their stats and that works well enough.

midnight wrote:Another question I had was whether my 3* leaders affect that stats of their 2* corps commanders? For example I've noticed 2* generals that should be good (according to their stats AND the aacw general pdf from the forums) and their stats are very low. Also I think I finally understand why my blockade % is stuck at 25%, I'm guessing it is because the CSA has their navy in the blockade too!
