Subject: SG II sizes of forces
> Having not yet played *any* SG2, what are people's average forces for I think that even a platoon on each side is too much for a 6x4 table. I was using a couple of squads broken into fire teams on smaller tables. Until recently I was lucky enough to have a 5 x 12 table (bit difficult to get on the plane though!) which I used to field a reinforced mechanised platoon a side (a mech platoon of infantry with either PA supprot or light scout tanks/inf walkers/etc). Two reinf. platoons even on the big table got crowded, I think the ideal was two dismounted inf platoons which could then use tactical advance and arty/air support.
