I am playing the Union at Pea Ridge. Can someone tell me the function of Franz Sigel. He has no command range and does not provide leadership to a division when stacked with the div commander. What's up? In the battle he commanded (poorly) 2 divisions.

Sigel is there to ensure the proper cooking technique for sauerkraut.

R. Greenley, Sir! <salute>

Normally if 2 leaders are back-2-back in the OOB, the first is the commanding leader the second is in reserve (has no support or command radius unless the prior leader is killed/wounded/captured).

This prevents lower level commanders from getting bumped up if this first leader is removed from his position. If the second commander is then removed, a promotion of the next ranked officer will move up and normally an anonymous leader will be added.

NOTE: I discovered this will doing several scenario creations and playtesting.

Hope this helped!

Like Col. Campbell stated, while he is waiting his turn to lead he can make fresh sausage and sauerkraut for his exhausted comrades. ;o)

Thank you both! That answers the question completely. Thank you much. I'll have some of that sauerkraut and sausage.

Actually, I have read, Pea Ridge is regarded as Sigel's finest performance.

Is this feature documented? If so where. I looked through all the documentation files in the game folder, could find nothing.

AFAIK this might only work with some posts. I just looked at some of my posts and there was no option to delete. In another thread there was but only on a message that was the last in the thread.
