Attach the three Platoon (Fire Team) and light mortars to the HQ from the Rifle Company.
Walla!

Thanks Suhiir. Our solutions are remarkably similar, instead of buying the light mortar section, I created a Company formation inserting a light mortar section in the CO Hq:

B0 Scout Team

• CO
• XO
• 1Sgt
• GySgt

B1 USMC Sniper Hv
B2 60mm Mort Sec

As for the three platoons, I could not change formation type in the Editor, so I used ScenHack as I mentioned earlier. Save the scenario in ScenHack and reload the scenario in the Editor where in Deploy > H key cross-attach the platoons to the company formation.

As I said, it looks nice but has anyone play tested this setup, as looks can be deceiving, as the "woman in the red dress," in the Matrix agent training program designed by Mouse illustrates.
