As the culprit who was most vociferous about this, and who actually discussed this with JT and GS at the 1st TILLERCON, allow me to respond. All the points you brought up are good, but at some point one has to assume that all the "what ifs" are somewhat evenly distributed and perhaps affect all units in the OOB. The operational scale of PzC does not really need to account for the heroism of cooks and bakers; IMHO a recon unit is a recon unit; and if the one remaining vehicle really represents 1 vehicle and 20 scouts that's okay; it is "1" recon unit represented by a vehicle icon.

The AT issue was spawned by those of us who were disheartened to have 3 disrupted Inf Bns of 1400 men pinned by 2 ATs of 1-2 guns/unit.

Anyway, on the operational level each icon represents a unit that functions in a scripted manner; and IMHO the system works well and is fun without being overly complex and detailed.
