No. Not as I read the rules, and not realistically. ELEMENTS (figures)

a SQUAD have to be within 2", SQUADS in a PLATOON can be spread out as
much as you want. The only advantage to being close, aside from mutual
fire-support, is the 6" communication rule - for ease of communication.

Pardon the ALL CAPS, they're for clarity not shouting...

movement orders as in FT. Some sort of map with 1" grid points all over
would be needed...

No time, tho, not for me...
