Maybe your TOCs are really small. . . I symbolize mine
with 3 APC parked end-to-end.  IRL, they are 4 (S2,
S3, S4, Commo Section) command vehicles, plus 1 for
the Fire Support Cell.	Plus maybe 12 or so jeeps.

Where are you located in the US?  Get in touch with me
after I get back from the war and I'll see if I can
work you in on leave.

I don't have the figs for 4-5 companies.  I will,
though.  By the time I get back--I'm leaving Don a
check to do some purchases for me.  The intent is to
be able to field a full Klibanophoroi BN Task Force. 
50K points or so.  You up for it?
