3 Star General question.

Mon Sep 15, 2014 8:20 pm

When you have a 3 Star General leading a stack do you "fill" him with combat units like a 2 Star General or you leave him "empty" and just leave him to command?
Thanks for any opinions.

Empty unless he has great attack values and would create a stronger corps than its counterparts. When you have a choice between assigning a corps to two generals, always try it out with both.

Very interesting question. I have used most of my 3 stars at the front. I do indeed fill them up. I had Foch with 48 CPs or so, and I filled him to the brim. And used him a lot. I had planned on using Pershing in similar fashion, then he disappeared. :(

I found I had enough units that most everyone 3 and 2 stars had their command point allotment filled out.

aye, allocate units. The CinC system in PoN is very different to that in other AGE games. The CinC is the senior **/*** star general in a given theatre, there is no direct set of organisational links
