Smersh said:I was looking at some Operation 'little saturn'offensive info (took placearound the don/stalingrad area against the italion 8th army in december of 1942), . if we were to model this historically accurate, we would have to have a division sized force in a 2-3km sector. it also talks about 43 gun tubes per km (20 hexes). this is something that has to be addressed.
Might be hard to do at the SP level. Too many units can overburden the average player. For "playability" best to keep it as manageble as possible for the players. Right now I am looking at a Rifle Battalion as the core force even if that requires smaller maps of maybe 50x50.
that was my point some battles had very huge concentrations of particulary infantry, a 50x50 map would be around 2.5km, like I said in some instances, a whole division would be fighting in an area that big. although probably not all at once.

but, I agree that it should definetly be kept at a battalion level just for playabily reasons.
