Adding Units to Existing Divisions Question

Mon Jul 02, 2007 12:01 pm

Starting with the Confederacy in the earliest campaign I am trying to add units to existing divisions, but I am unable.

Is it not possible to add units to divisions that already exist without destroying the division and reforming it? I hate to do that and pay the extra costs.

Thank you.

Hi
Yes you can, but always to a max of 18 elements (not units!)
To add, select the division and the unit you want to add (with control+left click, like in any windows program).
Then, on the middle orders tab (just to the left of the unit panel) you will see a light up button with a plus (+) sign.
Click it and... voilá!!
If the button its gray, then the division and the unit you want to merge must add up more tahn 18 elements... OR the unit (perhaps a brigade) had a leader embedded. You must separate this leader because only one leader is allowed per division.
Hope it helps
Cheers!!

check the tooltip on the grayed out button, it will tells you the possible reasons.

Are you playing with the most up-to-date version? I thought I was having a similar problem a while back and then suddenly it stopped --- might have been a momentary snafu. Make sure you have the most recent patch/fix.
