[SG] Blue on Blue

I've been designing a scenario which runs something like this:

A well know Serbian war criminal is moving between two locations in Bosnia
protected by a platoon of militia, however this move has been spotted by a 4
man 22 SAS OP. The decision is taken to insert a reaction force of US Rangers
(2 sections and a command element) ahead of them to set up an ambush, the SAS
follow behind to act as a blocking force. The SAS set up in one corner of the
board, the rangers set up with the 2 sections forming an L along the opposite
board edges to the SAS and the Serbs set up in centre of board. OK so far, but
it occurs to me that this is a good set up for a blue on blue between the
rangers and the
SAS, which is no bad thing - but how to model it?

The Serbians have a chance of spotting the rangers and deciding who moves
first, if they don't the NATO player decides.

The following are not true Orbats but represent the figures I have.

I suggest to modify the spotting rules accordingly.

Until elements have been positively identified, any mini is considered
potentially hostile. When it's spotted, throw an additional die, with, say, a
30% chance of misidentification. An ally could be taken for an enemy and must
be shot at (if it is the most threatening element) or an enemy is thought to
be friendly and fire is held (unless the enemy start shooting).
