QB Unit Selection

Apologies if this has been covered. Wondering if there is a way to break down the formations for purchase so I don't have to buy a battalion of infantry, for example, if what I really want is a company. Right now I can't figure out how to do that. As well is there a way to tell what's in the unit, e.g. I bought a panzer escort company once and didn't realize I needed vehicles to move the AT guns.

Or, are we just stuck with what is offered? Seems strange not being able to select companies and platoons.
 
Ok I shall explain:

*example*
I bought a Pzgr battalion

Then click on a company/unit you want to delete:
CMNormandy2011-07-2720-39-53-43.jpg


Most people dont use the battalion HQ so delete all from under the commander and the commander as last

Now the battalion is out of a commander

If you dont want any unit or vehicle within your battalion. Select it and press delete:
CMNormandy2011-07-2720-40-14-51.jpg


You can use this on all units to select. When you have done it a few times its easy.

Hope this helps.
 
Okay, thanks all. You expand the battatlion by right-clicking I guess as I have had trouble doing that for some reason.
 
That was an outstanding explanation. You expand by clicking on the "+" sign by the battalion. Then you can delete platoons to get into the point value.
 
Also the reason for adding the whole battalion and then subtracting what you don't want has something to do about Command and Control within the program (There is a detailed thread about it at the BFC forum). Remember too, if you are adding specialty units or single vehicles to assign them as part of the command structure you think they will be working inconjunction with. This will help them from being routed or panicked easier, and also give them quicker revcovery... I find this as important as anything else within this game engine...
 
Okay, thanks to all for the helpful info. Appreciate. Peace, out to all my FGM mutha f'kaz :)
