				| 
 |  
				| I've discovered that a number of times it would be useful to start under
 WAIT orders and then switch to ATTACK and would like to use a Signal for
 this, but the classical Greeks didn't use standards.  Based on re-enactment
 experience it is likely a horn would work, but 4.53 specifies "a single
 improvisied visual signal".
 
 For those of us without banners, what options do we have as to signals?
 Could the General+Bodyguard advancing be used as a signal?  Could their
 movement beyond a certain point count?

 I will make this more clear as well in the new book.
