Floating Generals:
Cannot ever send commands to any units, even paying an extra colored card, correct?
Cannot fight in any combat?

I had a cavalry unit attack the flank of a chariot TUG. The Chariot was also engaged to it's front.  On the next turn an enemy infantry TUG declared a charge on the cavalry unit. This would hit the cavalry in flank.  Assuming the Cavalry was missile focused, can it run away from a flank charge if already engaged or does it need to take it's lumps?

A Professional floating general (assuming they have cards) can prompt a (non-allied) unit in command range at the cost of an extra coloured card.

Floating generals can fight.

Floating generals can fight.

Using what unit as a base? As I read the rules, generals only offer a bonus grading. Just curious how you decide that...

[nikgaukroger]

As with any general they can fight with a unit they are with (non-allied).
