I'm converting a scenario between JR3 and they couldn't hit an elephant. How are jr3 generals rated?
I have neither the time nor the crayons to explain why you are wrong.

Hello LH

Only info I can find is a Points system from here http://www.cigarboxbattle.com/johnny-reb-3-point-system-written-by-john-hill/:-



Shows about half way down on the right that there are Brigade leaders at +1 and +2 and Div/Corps leaders at +1 and +2. Looks like a modifier for morale checks. Not sure if CHaE has big men ala IABSM but these could equate. Maybe can modify pip rolls.

Actually just saw that the 2009 Christmas special has an article on rating commanders for CHaE. http://toofatlardies.co.uk/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=15&products_id=67&zenid=b1314d894dd11531bb222b7301ae63de

There's a Quick Ref Sheet in the files section of the Johhny Reb III page on Board Game Geek

http://boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/4510/johnny-reb-iii?

It has a number of references to officers - not sure if that helps or just adds to the confusion!

There are 100 types of people in the world, those who understand binary and those who can work from incomplete data
