So the difference between a Field Marshal and Generalissimo is... what exactly? Generalissimo can automatically override a Field Marshal if one does not agree with the other on a certain scenario? (I ask because I don't know if a nation could have more than one Field Marshal and so possibly a higher rank is needed to coordinate them).
