How do I use Corps Attachments?

[Ricky B]

I look for one of two situations in deciding to attach a formation to a new Corps (or other available) HQ. As noted, if the formation has moved far away from its current parent, I will attach it to the closest. In most cases, I do this by starting with the Corps HQ and highlighting its sub units. Any that are close by are likely far away from their current parent so I will attach using the menu to the nearby HQ.

The second reason is to take advantage of Corps level assets, particularly artillery. If I have a parent HQ with a lot of artillery, I will assign more units to it than an HQ without artillery to provide additional support. I don't go overboard with 10 divisions or anything, I still try to keep it a reasonable mix of divisions across the HQs.
