Provision of Generals

Provision of Generals

From Winter 1741, in addition to the original Generals you are moving with your forces, any force of at least 4 units without a General, will be deemed to be under the conttrol of an SG7.  In any conflict any number of SG6 can be appointed (presumably from senior regimental officers) to meet the needs of the situation but must command a brigade of at least 3 units. 

In Winter moves each player may either create another SG 7 to move with their forces or may promote one existing SG7 to an SG8. The location of the new SG7 or the promoted SG8 must be stated

 WINTER

Moves will be designated by year and season, opening in Spring 1740. the seasons are Spring, Summer, Winter.

Only Winter, every third move, has specific rules 

a)      Although revenues are collected as normal no builds may be made.

b)      Only seaborne invasions in the Mediterranean and Indian Ocean are allowed

c)      Assaults on fortresses are not allowed

d)     If a battle is fought weather conditions are determined and this may affect shooting and movement. SoK provides some interesting random elements.
