Default Re: Daunted by Long Campaign force selection

If you plan on a leg infantry core, then 80x80 maps may be a better size for you.

Those cores are roughly battalion sized - 3 rifle coy, with an attached tank coy. The battalion is the basic unit, really.

If you really want a smaller core, then perhaps -

- HQ
- Observer
- a medium mortar section for him to play with
- an AA unit
- an A/T gun section of 2-3 items, towed or SP
- a scout section or scout car section

One rifle company + 1 tank platoon
(or one tank company + 1 mech platoon)

And go from there. i.e. the original SP size (was 24 or 48 units max in the core, been so long I have forgotten which).

A company team, in other words.
