So, we are told that, for example a Motor Infantry dude icon actually, represents a squad, platoon or company, tho I don't think I've ever seen the exact designation given, and I eliminated anything higher like battalion, and that's all well and good and makes sense. I mean would it really make sense if your entire Army only had 5 guys covering all the middle east? Obviously not. So cool, there's a platoon of guys going across the countryside, ... fine.
We are also told that each plane icon represents some other non specified number of actual planes, and this seems to make sense as well. A squad of strikes swooping in to bomb a target. Also fine.
But ships, here's where I think it breaks down. Are we to believe that an AIrcraft Carrier represents multiple carriers, and those multiple carriers are all going to be sailing around in lockstep formation??? And what about subs? If each sub icon represents a non specified multiple, and you have a five stack of them, does that mean you have like 20 subs all sailing around in 1 huge ass metal globe swarm, all stealthy and virtually undetectable?
What do you guys think?
tldr: icons representing multiple units believability breaks down for naval units.
