I tend to agree with this last - in the historical ancient model, even very
large armies usually stayed and fought close together under a single general
so there wouldn't be the same need for Corp Commanders as in, say the Napoleonic
era when armies split into detatchments which often marched and fought separately.
Having said this the army commander would very likely devolve the command
of the wings in battle to subordinates (tribunes or possibly senior regimental
commanders?), and would maintain a general staff to reduce the administrative
burden.
