Regimental Commanders in WIA5

WIA5 will apply command attributes (initiative, leadership, loyalty, ability, style, quality) to regimental commanders and field officers. This serves several purposes:

1. Selection of Regimental Commanders to replace Brigade Commanders: When a brigade commander becomes a casualty, the player will assign a regimental commander to replace him. The command attributes affect behavior in the game and may help the player in making the decision.

2. Selection of Regimental Commanders to command ad hoc brigades: Players in WIA5 will have the objective of taking and occupying territory and will most likely want to divide up there command, detaching units for occupation duties. Two or more regiments could be formed into an ad hoc brigade for an assignment and

3. Command of a detached regiment: When a regiment is detached to a different map from its commander, the regiment is essentially set up as a single-regiment brigade in-game and is influenced by the commander's command attributes.


When a regiment's experience/quality increases, it will also increase the command attributes associated with the regiment's commander, field officers, and senior captains.
