>What would you recommend, doubling all the electronic ranges?

Perhaps not straight doubling, but definitely spreading out the range
bands. Perhaps making the "unit" range band 24" as opposed to 12" (I
know
that this almost the same as doubling as it stands).

If this is for a campaign game, then why not extend the ranges. Your
goal
seems to be to have the two forces almost in weapons range before things
are revealed. Exdend that to tabletop distance - perhaps more with a
dedicated scou. and you haven't really lost much. Usually, forces you
set
up on the table are going to have one pass before they bug out.
