Scenario: Rifle Squads Based on Fire Teams

[shahadi]

I have not yet found a satisfactory solution to building platoons based on Fire Teams. Currently, we can build rifle platoons with the 13-member squad, because the current 13-member squads are units. While the Fire Team Squad is built upon three FTs, that is three separate units and the platoon formation is limited to only units or sections.

If I make the platoon a company, I can then accommodate the FT based Rifle Squad, but then the platoon won't fit in the Company formation, only platoons, units, and sections in a Company formation.

I proceeded to build a platoon as a company, then in the ScenHack I changed it in the Formations to a platoon. In the Editor, I cross-attached it to the Company formation. All the units appear, but I am not sure how the company will fight. In Deploy, when I click on the Company HQ, say B0, all units in the company and the platoon formation highlight. Upon clicking on a Platoon HQ, say C0, only units in the platoon formation highlight. So, it seems that it may work, but I am not confident.

Has anyone resolved and game tested a rifle squad based on fire teams?
