1.1 Adding Recruits to existing units
Recruits added to existing units in an existing army will follow the following rules.
1.1.1 Infantry
/ Cavalry / Artillery:
If the number added exceeds 15% of the original, the unit will be reduced one level in quality. The lowest possible level is F.
The maximum number of recruits that can be incorporated into an existing unit is 25% or 100 men, whichever is greater.
Recruits added will have the same weapons as the original units.
The maximum size of a unit is 800 men.
The maximum that can be added in a turn is 1 tube (25 men).
The maximum size of an artillery unit is 8 tubes.
2. New Units
Recruits that are not incorporated into an existing army, within existing units will form new units as follows:
1. The following general formula will be used: 1,000 infantry, 200 cavalry, and 2 artillery batteries. (25 men per tube)
2. Regardless of the type of recruit: infantry, cavalry, or artillery, they may be re-designated to comply with the above general rule.
3. Unit designations will be determined by the administration.
4. Requests for specific leader and unit names will be considered on a case-by-case basis. For example: The 3rd British Dragoons will definitely be denied. A request for a brigade commander named F. DiNola will definitely be considered.
Newly formed units will be armed as follows:
Infantry - muskets.
Cavalry - shotguns.
Artillery – 6 lb cannons.
Requests to upgrade weapons based on stockpiles accumulated during previous turns will be taken on a case-by-case basis.
3. Troop
