RE: Series two rules in hand
Peter,
The reason I was doing the comparison as a precursor to building a cheat sheet for folks who are trying to transition from playing PG to IA. I know PG rules a lot better than IA, but still have to go back and double check. For IA, I think I would be constantly confusing, and unfortunately using, PG rules because they are so similar - mistakes would be made. For me, a cheat sheet might is a handy reference. I think that this could eventually be expanded to cover differences in all three rules systems (PG, IA and Modern). I will of course start with PG and IA. I do acknowledged that the cheat sheet will have to be much more concise than what I am typing here.
As far as the 4.4 - I think you are right. I just referenced Scale (2.4) Field gun batteries are listed as 20-40 men and 2-4 artillery pieces. In effect it is a platoon and not a battery (company sized element). That makes much more sense from a stacking perspective. Personally I would like to see them change the symbol to a platoon symbol.
