Yes and no. For this test run there is no operational commander among the player team. In previous games I have found that a supreme commander does not usually work well unless that person is NOT involved in the actual battles as they tend to hoard resources for their own unit as opposed to distributing them to the other commanders. Its not always the case but after 10 years of running these that the reality. There are some who play their role impartially very well but they are few and far between. With a separate operational commander, this means they would plan the operational moves and allocate replacements but would not play any SP battles. You either play as overall commander or as a subordinate and fight the actual battles, not both.

Another question: We have reinforcements?

Right now I have a basic campaign story outline I have written and will use that to decide reinforcements (Support Points) and replacements (Build Points) for your forces. How well you do in each battle also has an effect on what you receive from higher headquarters.
