I'm not sure of the unit scale in the game you mention, but a good
generic
military sounding term is "maneuver element"
Currently Corps are made up of divisions, divisions of Brigades,
Brigades of
Battalions, Battalions of Companies, Companies of Platoons, Platoons of
Squads, Squads of Fire Teams, and Fire Teams of soldiers.
A vehicle Platoon is made up of individual vehicles.
