Re: Bradley formations
No matter what I do I will be right by some sources and wrong by others...it's the nature of the "game"...... the one we play and the one I play with the OOB's and the restrictions they impose to make the one we play..... work. In many cases, the problem is RL allows weapon use and loading flexibility based on the opponent that the game simply cannot simulate exactly so there have to be compromises made. Originally that meant a Javelin was integrated into a squad and that squad was given full TI capability and if a player needed the AT capability then that squad could be used....if they didn't need the ATGM capability a different squad could be used and that as a fair compromise but reduced the flexibility that having a smaller infantry component AND an ATGM unit gave.....one player may prefer one over the other and vise versa. All I can do is try to find a middle ground. Note that the TOE that the armchair general used in those examples that mirrors the Fort Benning info was sub-labelled " in a perfect world"......
