Description
Credit to MrJKapowey for the organization, IFV's, Trucks, and Officer guys.Kind enough to let me see his set up and since I practically use a good lot of his vehicles I decided to model my own formation to his own. I will remove upon his request if asked by him.

Me likey, however some comments:
1) I had thought you used a more US-inspired formation?
2) I didn't think you were a Monarchy ICly, so you've got a 'Royal Army Medical Corps' platoon in there, along with 'RAMC Dets' at each Company.
3) Your ATGM platoon seems to be kinda short on transports.
4) You have TDs attached to the Mortar Platoon, which is a novel way of blending direct and indirect fire, I'll admit.
5) Things like '1st 2nd' and '2nd 2nd' in the Colour Party of the Colour Company are very much a Kouralian thing brought about by tradition, rather than a concerted effort by me OOCly to follow RL military formatting.

Thankies. My answers:
1. I mostly used your equipment alongside my own made stuff and thought it'd be an appropriate set up.
2. I have an elective monarchy in Graditora. GR Regular Army, GR Royal Airforce, GR Royal Navy, and GR Royal Marines. The army is just the odd ball out.
3. 36 ATGM troops plus the 5 in the command section and 5 IFV's with a troop capacity of 9. 5x9=45. It enough. But I will admit the carriers will have troops mixing out of their sections and the command will have to share but I'll add a few for the sake of keeping them in the right groupings. Thanks for pointing that out so I can analyze it further.
4. Thanks, I decided that since the TD's that I have in my army weren't phased out but extremely upgraded over time that I'd have a huge amount of them so putting in 10 105mm guns into the fight for each battalion seemed like a spectacular idea. Especially since those 60mm guns on the IFV's would have a harder time getting through MBT armor needing the IFV to engage at closer ranges but instead using the TD's 105mm gun to engage any MBT encountered before the ATGM company must be tasked for the MBT removal. And they can double as artillery observers and be tasked for recon.
5. Would you like me to change it? The color company did confuse me a tad and I tried looking it up for a second name or something else for it but decided to leave it alone.
