I thought that in FoW one model represented one vehicle. I may be mistaken, but the Bannon's Boys box, there's 1 x M1 for the CO, and two lots of 2 x M1, each group representing a platoon. Is the scale then one model = two vehicles? |

It's always been 1/1 in all their rules. I can't imagine they would change it now. |

The Team Yankee scenario in the new Decembers wargames illustrated would suggest a big yes to the 1;1 . |

Yes, but my understanding is that it is in a fairly abstract manner, Tally Ho! |

Do the platoons have to be at full strength? Don't most FOW platoons allow you to adjust their size so you don't have to go with full strength platoons? |

Most FoW platoons give you a bit of wiggle-room. The Soviet company formations can be as small as 3 tanks or as large as 10. Infantry platoons can be as small as 2 squads when 3 is full strength. Not sure how the Abrams platoons are going to work, since they're platoons of 4. 2 tanks is awfully fragile. |

"Yes, but my understanding is that it is in a fairly abstract manner," Yes, in all thing's F.O.W. ""Fairly Abstract!"" |

1:1, but for points expensive kit they set the minimum models per platoon low. |

The T.O. & E. Cards I saw gave point values based on the number of vehicles in the unit. If I remember an Abrams unit was from 2-5 tanks. I think all the T.O.&E.s are done like this….. |

I get the impression that 5 tanks is what they're selling as a group. Nothing more. Team Yankee had only 10 M-1s so two packs should get you to full force. That's two tanks for the CO (Bannon) and X0 (Uleski) and 8 tanks for the two platoons. Rather convenient really. |

The above data cards may be out dated…..but there we go |
