HAIG, has a bad defense rating, combined with a good assault rating.

What I do with Haig is use him for an attack, once the attack is all done and my entire turn is about over, is remove/detach him from the game, then next turn attach him somewhere. His poor defence rating can really hurt you in a counter offence if you leave him in the game all the time.

The same can be done with the 2 French generals that have poor defense ratings.

To me using the attach/detach of generals to different locations can enhance gameplay.

Status: offline 		The unit that has has a commander will have a little red X in it's box... Took me a few matches to notice... you can detach the commander and then replace him to another unit of your choosing...
P.S. I still think they're worth a bucket of spit

Before attaching a commander to a unit, take a look at it's (units) attack/defense values. Then attach the commander, you should notice a change up or down in those values, not just that unit, but also other units within commander's range.

Status: offline 		Oneotherthing, Just finnished a CP 1914 game (ended Apr. 1916), yet there were Commanders, that met all the requirements to enter into game play, but never did, or they only entered years after where they should have, was befuddleing to me. Is this issue the same in your MOD?

Status: offline 		I have had the same problem with no show commanders in the game from the first time I played, another thing I could not understand, was how many commanders that should have been included but were not, so this mod will fix all that, I'm still at an early stage off adding these, but if anyone would like to use them in game now, they should not negatively affect any scenario's. Adding commanders only really affects 3 data files, the commander graphics file, the language file ( only in English at the moment ) and the commanders script file. I can make available all that have been added too or edited at the present time, plus any new commanders that I have still to add, will be complete new ones, and they will be added below the current number of 54 commanders. So the next one will be in position 55 etc !

UPDATE CLICK THE LINK AND GET YOUR NEW COMMANDERS !

OK link available, all the above new commanders will be available for you to use. Anyone can use these, they only changes the commanders in game, Please backup your Commanders graphics file, your commanders script data file + English language file. Once you have backup these files, delete the originals from your game, and replace with these 3 new ones, and that's it done your ready to play with new commanders enjoy.
