| 1 MORE DIVISION MAKE A DIFFERENCE? |

Sydney inquired in the Barracks: "If both sides received 1 more division, Would that result in more stacking, leaving the north and south edges left open as they are now? OR Would an addition stretch the front a little more north to south?" TOPD: The addition of a Divison and three brigades for each side could result in BOTH situations. I would think that an additional Division would extend the front-line and reduce the ability to hook or flank the other side. However, nothing would prevent the High Command from using it to stack or defend a critical choke point. Post TOE campaign history clearly shows that "breakouts" generally result in a rapid campaign conclusion. So, using a reserve division to expoit a breakout or hold a weak flank would be another use for an extra division. |

The game world has been enlarged since "brigades on the map" was implemented. It's a fairly odds on bet that we'll be adding more brigades to the mix when we get the time to do so.

Canada not at this time. Brigades outside of French, British and German will not be happening in the short term. Long term, well of course greater diversity would be desirable. :)
