If an officer is commanding a formation that is larger than his command rating, the effectiveness of his other bonuses will be reduced by (command rating / formation size). For example, an officer with a 20% defence bonus and a command rating of 5000 is commanding a regiment with a size of 7000. The defence bonus is reduced to 14.3%. In addition, if the largest HQ in a formation has a rating less than the formation size, the effectiveness of the formation commander's bonuses will be reduced by (HQ rating / formation size). These penalties (command rating and HQ rating) are cumulative. Note that if all HQ capacity in a formation is eliminated, no commander bonuses will apply.
So from what I understand, commanders are assigned to headquarters to give bonuses to ground forces and that capacity is based on how many tons the headquarters can handle.
My question is: What happens if i go over that tonnage limit? I tried it and the game didn't stop me from assigning too many units and there was no error so what's stopping me from assigning all of my units to one 1000 capacity headquarters?
