disadvantages over the small LC units.
I do the same thing, most often with my Chinese. The disadvantages are that
you just simply cannot handle any enemy shooting at aall, so have a place to
go when they do get in range. The big disadvantage to these guys is that you
take a waver when they break, so you can't get them in trouble near your own
stuff.
I know that LI are not as
important as before, so I was just wondering.
Before what? And what makes you say that in any case?

Boyd,
It all depends on how you support them and as usual this comes down to
individual tactics. Just don't hang them out to dry and they will be fine. If I
could suggest something for those sized units, I'd suggest that you upgrade
their morale to "B" class to get them out of pinches in the way of almost
automatic counter rolls. If you can't upgrade them, "C" class gives you a 66 and
2/3 chance of getting away! Merry Christmas!

Used to be edge to edge LI in many cases, and with the new break
rules, this is not practicaple to have that many expendable units.
