This update improves how generals, artillery and shared formations behave during battle. Isolated generals now move towards safety when enemy troops close in. Units can change formation while sharing a hex with an unattached general or artillery battery. Artillery now attaches to infantry correctly, and reinforcement generals retain their leadership abilities.
