ing up TOEs is half the fun of SF gaming. ;-) Of course, once you've got
your establishment, you can always rationalize away insufficient
quantities. How long was a formation of practically any era up to its
paper establishment, if ever, once in the field? Five minutes? (Okay, I
exaggerate. A little.)
   
  Things go sproing (to quote the great Australian naval gamer Mal
Wright) with depressing speed and regularity. In my WWII micro-armor
games, it's a rare day indeed to see a battalion of _anything_ show up
with everything the TOE says it's supposed to have--even if I do have
all the miniatures.
   
  Best,
  Ken

good reason - they just felt right. Now I understand a little better why
that is. I have some in 3 tank platoons, but on the assumption that the
number of platoons per company would not differ, but that the one tank
type I'm using is not in good supply, and thus, they run with short
platoons. Not ideal - just what they have to work with. :)
