Platoon - Company - Battalion HQs


Recommended Posts

Currently, we use Platoon Leaders with minimum length line connections to support the squads under their charge.

The next step in the command and support structure could go something like this:

If we used Company commanders with longer connection lines only to the Platoon Leaders they could influence the entire company, perhaps better communications and mobility etc.

Even one step further, if you have a Battalion HQ with long connection lines only to the Company HQs you could influence the communications, mobililty, morale etc. of the Company HQs and they pass it through to the Platoon HQa seems to make allot more sense to me!

This would be a more realistic appraisal of the battlefield. For instance if you did a flanking manuevre and were able to knock out a Company HQ or Batallion HQ, you would impair the full Battaiion. Robbing it of some of it's command and control! Very interesting and would help to influence tactics on the battlefield.

I would enjoy reading further input from others smile.gif

Cordially,

Voxman
