Notes on Game

As he starts to deploy his corps the Prussian commander must use more CP as he wants different elements to perform different tasks.

He must also use CP to position himself in the centre of the corps. He must be within 8” of a brigade to issue orders.

It is rare that a corps commander will ever have sufficient CP to do everything he wants to do.

The cost of CP for different actions is covered in Rule 3
