This is one of the reasons I tend to make many of my scenarios centered around a USMC Battalion MEU. It's essentially a small combined arms brigade, a "bit" light on armor and artillery because the USMC relies heavily on air support (why we have our own "private" air force). This doesn't work terribly well in WinSPMBT, but it works ... sorta. However the attack helo element generally makes up for it ... IF ... you have ammo resupply.
