Embarking on our first battlegroup game tomorrow evening and we have a question regarding artillery/mortar support. Do the mortar supports get included under the regimental support or stay at battalion level?
We are playing 2 battalions, so for example, the German MG company support has 1 platoon of mortars, is that allocated to 1 battalion and the other can't call mortar support or is it held at the battlegroup force commander level (regimental) and allocated by him so only availabe to 1 battalion on any given turn? or can you purchase 2 mmg companies and allocation 1 to each battalion?
Similar for the Russians, is the free mortar platoon available for each battalion if using 2 battalions or only available at the regiment and allocated by the force commander when called?
thanks

Re: Battlegroup Question
Hi E. My understanding is that the Battalion mortars are attached to the Battalion and can be used each turn or replaced with the regimental artillery as many times as you have missions assigned. So this would apply to each Battalion on both sides.
