Subordinate To Commander Ratio

[Charles22]

Thanks, but I wasn't really wanting a definition of why there's a 10 tank platoon. It's nice data, but I was looking for an observation of what it means to actually use these diffeent sizes and what are the advanatges. I have pointed out a few of the 10 unit squad advantages and where they could be used well, and I bet nobody believes that. I almost starting to believe that people see the reasons it was designed, as a bust basically and therefore it "cannot" work to an advantage, so nobody wants to entertain that it can, and after all that time I expanded on that point.

Nonetheless, the 10 unit one was something of a minor point, but it is an extreme anyway. So if people want to rule it out, oh, perhaps they're not going to use it themselves so there's no point in talking anything substantive about it concerning the direction of the thread, well fine, but at least open up on the ones that aren't busts.

How about the 6 unit platoon compared to the 1 or 2 unit section? What implications do the different sizes have for the ability to rally or fight? I'm starting to think this is over people's heads, but I wouldn't think so; maybe it's just too boring or too microscopic? If you had a choice, for a long campaign, what amount would you give these platoons out of the options available:1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, and 10? Would you go with a blend (most of us have to anyway)? Have you ever thought there's advanatges to rallying and firepower based on how many there were in a platoon?
