Zhukov's set up is based on his own security and enforcing compliance from the AG, it's labour and construction corps and also the planetary population. Which may well be a tall order. <br />What we might think of as military intelligence (ISTAR) will be alive and well at Div and Regimental level, but then these levels of warfighting organisation won't be too concerned with the labour and construction corps and the planetary population. <br />Here's to Capt Aileus' new appointment !Zzzzzzhttp://www.devos4.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9010917663653102321.post-14688347286025170642013-03-19T23:18:47.443+00:002013-03-19T23:18:47.443+00:00Ditto the above.

I've always been mindful of how intelligence is treated in 40K ... obviously it's the prerequisite to successful operations and I'd imagine there would be 'Planning Officers' or 'Cartographers' at a low level to plan Bn ops, below that (as is the case in real life, to a point) the Coy/Platoon commanders just deal with it themselves. At a higher level I suspect there'd be an inbuilt suspicion towards anyone whose job it was to gather knowledge. In the same way the traditional, professional intelligence elements of the German Army in WW2 found themselves ignored by the regime (especially at the top, ie Abwehr level), because the regime was inherently frightened of them.Colonel Scipiohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02632701529009379584noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9010917663653102321.post-5274339493525826272013-03-18T13:51:56.901+00:002013-03-18T13:51:56.901+00:00It is really cool to see it laid out like this.

While FW does do it occasionally, what you have here is a far more believable chain of command in my opinion. Very impressive! If there is more of this I'd love to see it! :)Col.
