Units Breakdown

[Herr Straße Laufer]

I think giving the players the ability to break a unit down below platoon level is a bad idea.
If you want to play with squads play Squad Battles?
Or design a scenario that has lower strength units (squad size).

Giving players the "option" to break down into smaller sizes could lead to more "gamey" play than already exists.

Yes! Once again I will defend scale. Platoon combat is platoon combat.

For many of the reasons listed above, by others, I can see a slippery slope into compromising the game engine and how the game is played.

Believe me, there are already enough "house rules" governing "gamey" play. Breaking down units below their scaled level could only compound the problems with the game.

Unit breakdown because a player let some transports get shot up seems more a player problem than a game problem?
