France 14 - Now where is that HKK 3?

RE: France 14 - Now where is that HKK 3?
Well, from a scenario design point of view, look at where the 7th and 8th KD is by the 25th; they are exactly along the map edge (the red isolated blob above them is Manonviller, which marks the edge of the map).

These two divisions cannot be added to the campaign or its sub scenarios IMO, because the user would not use them along the map, where they were arguably just holding/screening between the 6. and 7. Armee boundaries. The user would have absolutely no reason to use them in this way, and would have them racing about the countryside, or would transfer them to another army (in the campaign). And it also makes no sense to just put them on the map and fix them in place either since the Germans are advancing.

So no, I still do not think HKK.3 (at least the 7 & 8.KD) should be present in the Home Before the Leaves fall campaign or the Nancy scenario. However, I suppose one could argue that at the very least the bayer.KD should be present in all of them, especially since it remained after HKK.3 was withdrawn. Also, maybe the 8.KD could/should be present in the grand campaign and then withdrawn once it moved towards the map edge. I will look into that, but again the latter decision relies more on how it would be used than whether it literally be present...
