First, Thanks IMP for the input on ATGM ranges. I'm more familiar with the deployment of Dragon than the Javelin, but I agree with your assessment and will work on that concept for the future scenarios. Appreciate it! I guess my primary concern has been the observation that even with filtering, I've seen units using opportunity fire at longer ranges and seeing either defensive maneuvers or countermeasures defeat the shots. I'm learning but the curve is slower than I would like.
As far as the Scout Helo, Airborne Rifles comments were the basis of my selection of only using the Apache. I guess I'm a little ahead of the rotation concept, but I'll add some assets to balance it out a little in the future. As with ATGM's, I'm on the learning curve with Airmobile tactics.
I appreciate the feedback. It helps me develop in game design. I'm soon retiring and will be driving my wife crazy spending more time in front of the computer than I manage to meek out now (to her expense, she would tell you). Your comments are helping me greatly!
