The Insurrection Corps in the game is used to cut supply, the Austrain Player (the only MP in the game with the Ins. Corps) has the ability to place the Ins Corps within the specified provinces on any enemy movement into that province. Since in the Land Phase Corps move seperately and one space at a time (usually the only time when people actually follow this rule except for supply counting, which enhances the game speed thankfully :) ) So if the Turkish player is moving into Austria-Hungary and moves one in, then two in and then the Austrian Player pops up the Ins. Corps right behind the newly moved Turkish corps, the turkish corps' supply chain has just become a little longer, or too long, depending. This really slows Turkey's movement thru Austria and allows the Austrian player the ability to reinforce the Ins Corps with other corps who are usually across the country fighting France. The Ins. Corps. (if used properly) are a great help to the Austrian Player. :) ps. The Ins Corps can be used for combat immediately, but why would anyone want to do that? This would, in effect, go against the benefits of having the Ins. Corps, becuase they have such a low morale and are better used for slowing the Turks down and rapidly cutting supply lines. However, this again depends on your strategy and the game YOU are playing. :)
