Usual problems with terminology, heh. A squadron in the spanish army (the one I based my model on) is a platoon in the US army.
I was thinking more along the lines of assigning the HQ as an "upgrade" to one of the platoons. That would mean that a tank company would be 3 groups, not 4: 3, 3 and 4 tanks. An infantry company would be 2 (infantry platoons, one of them containing the HQ) or 4, depending if you turned the transports into independent units or not after the dudes dismouted.
And yes, of course it would slow the game down. It would also be more realistic IMO and I would be glad to pay the price for slower game but with better "reasoning". But well, that's me. We are already beating a dead cow here 
Regards,
Xavi
