RE: Splitting units?
I use the following for my rule of thumb. First, I divide if I am trying to encircle a unit, or if defending so I can put a regiment in reserve on tactical. I also try to divide my unit by 9 or 10, so if a 20 point unit I would divde into two units, if a 30 into 3. If an 18 (minimum I use for dividing) I use a base 9 (so 18 into two units, 27 into three).

It works very well for me and I have had no problems with them being cut off as I ensure they don't get too deep without supporting units.
