I guess the question is what is the purpose of hiding troops? Is it simply to deceive the enemy about the strength of the division or to form an ambush. I am presuming the former otherwise I'm sure that Herve would have used the word Ambush ( as per ADLG) so I tend to agree they should be in the deployment area of the division (unless in garrison). It would be unreasonable to then say Hidden troops add to the unit count for a divisions compliance with orders but agree they have the same order when they are eventually revealed. Thus they might end up out of command if the division has moved away - such is life! I think we have an agreement although not much convinced about the use of hidden troops- perhaps a large unit of 12 pds may cause pause for thought!
