Well, my size classes are a bit different as compared to some
folks' size classes here on the list. I do try to get a collection
(3-4 min) of a given vehicle whenever possible (did that before
discovering DSII :-) so I could have groups of them to work with.
Two of my B'tech tanks (the Von Luckner and the Rommel/Patton - which
is which I've long forgotten so I fake it ;-) I consider to be in
the Size Class 5 range. By comparison, the Future Wars "Andromeda"
tank is about the same size, the "Jupiter II" tanks I consider Size
Class 4, most of my Brigade stuff and main battle tank-sized Future
Wars vehicles Size Class 3, tanks from GHQ WWII are more like Size
Class 2 (from Shermans and Panzers down to M113s*), and things smaller
still are Size Class 1. 

* - some (even I ;-) could argue that M113s are a different size class
than Shermans and Panzers, but I like to keep the size class ranges
somewhat flexible so I can accomodate the largest to smallest stuff
all at the same time. But heck, it's all relative, anyway. :-)

As for misc vehicles, you say they are "attachments" from the Division
level thrown into your Company/Battalion/Platoon/what-ave-you. That
would be a plausible option, I'd think.
