To give Arty battery's orders you would use the same procedures as Infantry Brigades.
Select the Battery Commander, double click on the desired location, select the depoly battery button (the guns will auto-umlimber if enemy is in range).
If the battery won't move, use the Take Command button on the Commander. Sometimes he can be stubborn if he likes his current position, you might have to pull rank and insist a little .

Paradox will have to answer when the download will be available.

In the div tutorial, you are the division commander. There is a battery commander in charge of the artillery. They will want to move the arty to where they think it should be best used. If you want to turn off his AI and place the arty yourself, you need to "Take Command" of him and place the arty yourself.

Take command of the batter leader on the horse, then move the individual guns.

Hi!

Taking command should be good enough to move the whole battery.

But if that doesn't work, "detach" the battery as well. You detach by clicking on the chain button and the link should then "break."

Detach guarantees they will do nothing but what you order. They are a bit brain dead but will fight, so if you detach a unit, remember it won't move unless you tell it to.

BTW, I always detach my artillery.

Good luck,

Ray (aka Lava)

The other thing to remember is that it takes about 30 sec to hitch up the guns to the limbers (ammo carriers). They can't go until connected to their horsepower.
