It's important to understand the deployment and how Gettysburg progresses in order to play the battle properly.
For the CSA, you are allowed to deploy 3 corps. The first two will attack on day 1 and the third will be the one attacking on day two at the round tops, unless you capture Cemetery Hill first, which wins you the battle. It's not easy to do though (shouldn't be anyway), if it is, do report back.
You can move troops in to your third corps in the camp between days so if you lack the forces to make a 3. corps, just make sure it has 4. divisions made before the start of the battle and you can shift troops around before starting the attack on the Round Tops.
It needs a full corps of brigades to function.
As Union, it is less important how you deploy - you'll be able to deploy all of your potentially 5 corps as the battle progresses. The first corps on the field will occupy Culp's Hill and the Cemetery and the second will occupy Sickles position on day two.

3 for the CSA but you can have a dummy corps if you move troops around between days. At least if you want to attack on day two at Devil's Den.

That's not what the deployment screen indicates- it only shows slots for 3 corps.  Are there options to bring more after the first day?
