Default Re: Question about force composition

Some thoughts on force composition:

1. Always start by buying a FOO (being 2nd unit makes it easy to find when you choose to do artillery call)

2. Buy some AA (personally I like a good SAM unit and a mobile cannon armed section which can also help out Vs infantry/light vehicles).

3. Decide on your ratio of Inf units to armour (2:1? 3:1? etc) - I tend to have a "heavy" mech inf company (which includes IFVs, a platoon of engineers, etc), a lighter inf company perhaps in trucks or apcs, and a tank company.
