Reconnaissance by leaders

[KG_RangerBooBoo]

I could agree with the need for scouts but that is what light cavalry is for at this level I believe.  I've read of the British using "scouting officers" in Spain but no where else.  I could even go along with your argument for "scouts" if it wasn't for the fact that they have instant communications with the army which wasn't possible.  If you could program it that the positions those scouts saw could be shown when said scout ran back to the army and reported to a Corps officer that would be great.  Of course it would be old information but that would be historical.
