I played a PBEM game. Switzerland vs USSR, 1989.
The idea was that plenty of WP first line forces had been used up against NATO and for the attack on the Swiss it was less sexy stuff.
My idea was to use a Cat C Regiment. For this I bought:
Recon Co (infantry type, BRDM-2s with scout teams armed with RPG7s)
Tank Bn (3 Companies with T-62D)
3 Mot Rifle Bn's (each 3 Reserve Companies with AK47s, RPKs and RPG7s along with a Inf Bn Support Co with 82mm mortars, Strela-2 and AT teams with SPG-9, Malutka-P and RPG7).
BTR Group (For lack of points I could only buy enough APCs for 1 Bn, I got BTR-60PBs for three Reserve Companies).
Arty Bn (122mm towed D-74 guns, got two batteries, I guess the rest of the Bn was diverted or destroyed somwhere enroute to Switzerland. I got D-74 but should probably have bought D-30...)
Engineer Company (1 Engineer Platoon)
AA Element (4 Strela-1M)
Transport and Supply Group (A few trucks and ammo units)
I'm unsure of the Malutka-P and the Strela-1M..., but they seemed to be a resonable choice. What about division level artillery - all towed? Any BM21 units...? Would there have been any 100mm AT guns...?
