Regiment/Battery Raise Orders Page
Regiment and battery raises can be submitted by
the governor of a state bloc, or by its Congressman. The President,
Vice-President, and Secretary of War CANNOT submit regiment and
battery raises.
For type, select the branch of service that you want.
For number, enter the number of units you want to raise. It must be
12 or less (if you want to raise 24 units, submit two orders).
Regiment IDs will be assigned automatically using the lowest unused
number.
For state supplying manpower, enter a state which is part of your
nation and has manpower available to raise, from the source you
selected. For source, neither Bounty, Draft, nor USCT may be used
unless Congress has authorized the use of that manpower pool. Older
may be used only for militia regiments unless Congress has
authorized the draft. Units raised from the Older pool will be of
lower quality.
For destination, enter any city controlled by your side which has a
rail or river link to a city in the state supplying the manpower (if
in a divided state, a city of the appropriate loyalty).
The time required to raise the regiments will be 3 turns for
infantry, 4 turns for artillery and cavalry except 6 turns for siege artillery, 1 turn for militia,
plus 1 turn for every 30 squares along the link to the destination
city. (The transit time is not yet being added; hopefully for CWOL 9.)
