Default Re: Attack rearmost - how does it really work?

It will never work fantasticaly.

Try breaking your flankers into as many small groups as you can. Place tiny groups of them on the outside of a large group. Your chances improve of getting one of the small groups to slide well past the large group before choosing their target.

I also remember something about using a single commander with the units on guard-commander but I dont remember the results.

Snag the BattleSim map and try various formations and scripting.
