I have bought the "Mandate of Heaven" extension.
I have played a battle with a Qing army and I have discovered that some units were not attached to any general. They didn't suffer from CandC limitations.
These units were artillery, light cavalry units and foot skirmishers.
I have never noticed this fact with the japanese armies. Is this normal ? Does it depict the ability of light troops to do Reconnaissance in front of the main force ?

They are not attached to a general, but they can still get C&C from a sub-general or C-in-C (not from an ally-general) when in range.

They do still lose C&C when out of range of a valid general.
