RE: Soviet tanker/SMG integration

Liebchen,

A simple solution would be to have the tank battalions have a higher Soft Attack and Assault values than normal to represent the integration of the SMG infantry support. Considering that a SMG company, which would be supporting the tank battalion has only approximately 80 men, not counting the SMG battalion assets (mortar battery, ATG battery, ATR platoon and MG platoon), one could easy increase the Soft Attack and Assault values by 2-5 points and have the desired effect.

And, taking into effect how closely the SMG infantry work with the tanks, there is no reason to have the unit have any special abilities that a tank unit would not normally have with the exception of the unsupported armor rule/penalty, which the higher Assualt value should be able to offset.

Actually, I think that I will incorporate it into the scenario that I am currently working on. Thanks for the idea. :chin:
