RE: [SG2][DS2] battalion or regimental level meta-game

I'm thinking that some thing with a 1 to 2 km hex would be in order. 
For SG a 
table would be one hex, for DS a table would be multiple hexes.  Using
Assault 
would for SG give you table of @ 7 hexes, for DS a hex would equal 2.5
inches.

Hmm,

Immediately springs to mind is Assault with the opther add on games,
Boots'n'Saddles, Bundeswher and Cheftain. Hex size was 250m scale and
played
at Regt level. Obviously anything you choose will need some modification
but
this one would I think be reasonably adaptable?

My 2 cents.....
