Default Re: FG 42 fjg Gruppe

The statement that the number of men in a section is more significant than the points values for rifles leads me to a question. Is there an optimum size for an infantry unit? In some OOBs you can pick betweem different sized units. I have usually favored 12 man units over 10 man units. However, I notice that dispersal on a 12 man unit is usually at 9 casualties, while a 10man unit usually disperses at 8 casualties a 33% extra hit to the 12 man unit vs. a 20% hit to the 10 man unit in extra losses. Any thoughts on this would be appreciated.
