Re: SGII Newbie Question

Keep in mind that the other problem with big sqauds is that they are
hard to control
effectively. That's why no one really uses them any more. The are either
broken down
into seperate fire teams, which function as seperate elements under the
control of a
team leader. This way the SL is only talking to two people and policing
up
stragglers. (esp Orcs !) It's the two team leader that are the fighting
leaders of
their own elements. They lead by example and control everyone's movement
and fire by
example etc. It's why you might have to mnkey with the FP (drop it to
1.5 or
something)  as Brian suggests.

But still even in the wrap around method I'd rather have two attacks
(each with 2
large die assuming no SAW) then one attack (with three die 2 large and 1
small). It's
more effective and dishes more damage that way. However the large squad
can take more
casualties which allows it to hold it's FP effectiveness longer.
