How many Battalion Mass are allows under Epic/LGB rules? Is it the corps commander number of cards or corps commander plus CIC or what?

Dependent of the number of the CiC command cards.

The austrian Battalion Mass refers to the square rules (only different, they don´t loose a card) and the (epic/LGB) square rules refers only to the CiC.

My dice are the hell!

Any one else think that there is a mistake in the LGB rules, whereby the CiC is supposed to give out "Section" cards according to Section named on the card, despite the Corps Commander being also restricted according to Left or Right within their section ?

Has this has crept in accidently from Epics? In the LGB format, where each Corps Commander has their own pair of sections, it makes little sense to me. It leads to an odd situation where each flank commander will tend to get command cards for their outer flank, meanwhile disabling a key instrument in allowing the CiC to influence Corps Commanders, which is surely what this game should be about.

That said, I can't find a forum post touching on this in the Epics expansion rules forum on BGG. Anyone else played LGB and noticed this oddity or can explain where I'm going wrong ?

Scratch my previous post ... from my last re-read of the rules, I now appreciate that there is a distinction between a card received from the CiC and a card played from the Corp Commander's hand and that resolves my concerns.

Seems complicated but presumably it's been worked out that the extra complexity is worth it for the game.

Can i clarify, if the left flank Corp Commander receives an attack left card from the CIC, does this command 3 units in the left section of the left Corp Commanders two sections or allows 3 units to be activated across both sections how the Corp Commander decides - so 3 in left, 0 in right; 2 left 1 right; 1 left, 2 right; or 0 left 3 right?

I understand it to be 3 units across both sections
