I’d argue that tanks are only going to be a problem in tournaments, but then those types of players will find any gap and abuse the heck out of it while they can.

Tournament organizers could simply rule : “no platoons of [type]”, which kind of makes their life easier compared to the reinforced platoon system. Heck, the rules already appear to state that you need a rifle platoon for every ‘extra’ platoon. The one thing we don’t know is if there are any minimum squad sizes. I wouldn’t be surprised if they followed V for Victory and set the default squad size at 8 for example.

Besides … we don’t know what the campaign and “army of …” books will have in store for us.

So … plenty of unknowns at this time and as always we can house rule whatever the heck we want.
