Formation................Name

Company organisation:

686 Engineer Sec (New unit)
140 Recon Sec
589 Pltgb 903
570 Tgb 1/2t (jeep)
1442 Arm Eng Plt 63 (New formation)
1442 Arm Eng Plt 63 (New formation)

Notes: This formation represents the Armoured Engineer companies found in the Armoured Brigade Engineer Battalion. Each Arm Eng Bn had two Eng Coy's along with some other elements that fall outside the scope of the game. Armoured in name only, as it was transported in trucks, the company nevertheless was expected to be able to deal with some combat assignments. In reality it had a third platoon - the Machine Plt - manning certain engineer vehicles (left this plt out as the machine plt builds roads, plow snow etc)

Notes: The Plt had four squads - three engineer sections (without heavy weapons) and one engineer support section with two LMGs and one Grg. Units 686 Engineer Sec, 687 Engineer Sec, 688 Engineer Sec and 689 Engineer Sec are all class 20 Engineer units with similar cost and equipment as existing eng units, although none have flamethrowers. Units 692 Eng Spt Sec and 693 Eng Spt Sec are class 195 Engineer Support Squad. Ltgb 934 is a medium truck, with something of a cult status that was in use between the 60s and 90s.
