I/m new to the great game and am having a real problem creating armies in campaign mode . AS armies are appointed how do you find , create or buy army HQs to go with the eligible generals . What happens to the HQs when you disband an army ?

you first have to be able to recruit a army HQ unit in the support tab, once it is finished training you need to send him into the stack of a 3 or 4* general...then if that general passes his check and can actively lead troops ( you can hover the mouse over his portrait to see weather or not he can, or you can look at the envlope next to his portrait and if it is darkened out he cannot) If he can actively lead troops that turn go to the second tab of orders and you should see the Create Army button lit up....if he is the next senior leader it will say you can create this army...if he is not it will tell you that the general being passed over will not be happy and you have to pay a certain penalty...possible reasons for the tab not being lit up are:

-The General cant lead troops that turn
-The General is already Commanding a stack
-No Army HQ is present in the stack


if i missed anything go ahead and add it, i hope that helps

sound very encouraging - thanks very much !

When a new Army HQ becomes available, you will see a message to that effect in the events log for the previous turn.

Ahh, I just started my campaign and was wondering when I would be able to buy them...guess I get to play the waiting game.
