Whoops, didn't realize that would post again if I did a back. Sorry about that.

I didn't go look at the page that was pointed out, but here's a quickie:
(numbers vary on nationality, type of squad, and for WW2, year of the war)
squad: 6 to 15 men, or 1 vehicle
section: 2 squads
platoon: 2 to 5 squads (figure around 40 men)
company: 3 or 4 platoons usually (figure around 100 men)
battalion: 2 to 5 companies, but since different types of companies were involved, size estimate is odd
Up from there, it goes brigade/regiment, then division.
Hope that helps!

Beta testing?

I've been lurking a few days, and some of the posts mention CM going to beta test sometime this summer. I haven't figured out who's who here yet (aside from Steve posting as BTS), so I figured I'd ask this way (and the search engine didn't turn up anything):
Are you going to use any outside beta testers? I have done beta tests for several computer games and wargames, so I'm familiar with what's required.
I can toot my horn with the various equipment and different configurations I can test with for you, but I didn't want to waste anyone's time (or bandwidth) if no outsiders are going be used.
So far, it looks like a truly ground-breaking game.
