Re: War of the Fleas: the Blue Hills
Looking at the Russian side, not for TO&E aspects, but simply within the gameplay. I found that the mtr rifle companies were purchased with their vehicles, this may explain why when you set waypoint for the hq unit you're taken to the far left corner of the map. So, to overcome this, you may dismount the force hq unit and each mounted hq unit before setting waypoint for the formation. You'll find each platoon will accept a waypoint, but the co hq will behave erratically.
I have played with AI controlled mech inf assaults and have found them difficult to control. So, what has been accepted is to purchase the vehicles separate, set their speed lower than the supporting infantry unit and place them behind the infantry say 150 m. Set waypoints for the infantry and the vehicles. You'll find the inf won't dismount where you'd like, so it maybe better to have them at a reinforcement turn at the spot where you want them, dismounted. Set waypoints.
See Tomas for Russian tactics. I'm thinking the Russians would have a platoon of Sp Mortar with each company. Normally, the Bde would have, depending on the number of battalions 2-3 batteries of SPA. They would mass fires at the point of assault, there is a counter, but that's another discussion.
