Post subject:  Corse's Brigade Missing

I am engaged as the Rebels in an HPS Gettysburg campaign with the ANV fully present at Westminister except for Corse's brigade of Pickett's division. The brigade is not on the map nor in the scheduled reinforcments. Does anyone know if this is an omission in the scenario desgin or could Corse be detailed to guard the lines of communication?

Historically Corse and Jenkins brigades had been temporarily assigned to D.H.Hill's department. When Lee requested their return Hill elected to keep these veteran brigades to watch the union enclaves in eastern Va and N Carolina. I believe they were released late by Hill and held to guard Richmond while Lee was in Pennsylvania.

In the HPS historical battles oob's they are not available while in the Campaign Game Corse is part of Pickett's division while Jenkins has been assigned to Whiting's Division of D.H.Hill's IV Corps along with Cooke's brigade that had been part of Ransom's small division the previous year.
