The combat width of a division is the sum of the widths of the battalions it contains. Base battlefield width for combat is 80, where additional directions bring 40 extra per direction. Width is also affected by certain combat tactics. The available width of the combat is increased when attacks on the province come from multiple directions, so tactical flanking is needed to leverage a numerical advantage if the battlefield width is a limiting factor. The combat widths of each division in a battle are added together to determine how many of those divisions will fit into the width of the frontline and fight. Tactics are chosen at the start of combat and changed every 12 hours.
