RE: Chaning attachments
Guys:
What were seeing here guys is actually a bit of custom coding done by John Tiller. I'll try to keep it simple or as simpleas I can.
The Attachment Rules are or were designed for assigining divisions to different Corps.
What it does is assign Division units (which include Corps Troops and in some cases KGs and Combat Commands) within available Corps.
However, if you notice the Soviet Corps structure was largely destroyed in the early war and because the Soviets didn't have enough staff officers to go around, I spoke with John and we made a special case that for PzC Soviets, teh Corps attachment rules would work for Divisions and Corps (Mainly Cav Corps and in later periods Tank and Mech Corps) to move within Army units.
Generally the Cav Corps were kept together and Cav Divisions were not spun off to different Corps or Army - the Cav Corps remained together, so it all worked fine. Tank\Mech Corps are made up of Brigades and again these formations stayed together so here again the Corps can move between Armies.
The last spin on this rule is for Modern Campaigns #1 - ME67. What we have here is another special case where the rules work for Israeli Brigades to move between various divisions because the Israeli Army is built on a Brigade structure and they freqently moved the Bridges around into larger KG type formations which was named after the Commander. So instead of the 2nd Division for example it was "Sharon Division" commanded by General Ariel Sharon.
