What are peoples' thoughts regarding adding Recon elements to the existing scenarios? Many scenarios' OB's represent brigade or higher formations. Of course formations that large likely had Recon elements of some kind attached from their parent formations.
For example: the typical British Infantry Division had a Cavalry (recon) regiment of 12 carrier and 6 Lt Tank troops. I would say that during offensive action it is fair to assume troops were allocated to the Brigades as support .
Is it expected that the available recon elements are already present in the OB as combat elements, and if so should they be identified as recce? If they have been excluded, should we be looking to add them?
