Nix,
That's correct - this is a platoon scale game so each counter is generally 5-10 vehicles. Most platoon-scale games have to assume that a platoon will, in the contest of reasonable space and time scale, be able to adjust to cover flanks or rear as threats emerge. You will more often see flanking or rear bonuses in tactical 1:1 scale games where an individual vehicle is involved or in scales and periods where formations are more important. With that said, in same hex combat flank and rear shots happen.
What you are concerned with here is flanking and rear attacks on a larger scale. If you've deployed your company such that only one platoon is covering an approach route from the right and the main enemy attack comes that way, you have just been flanked and may be rolled up/destroyed piecemeal even though you may not have had any flanked vehicles on the lower tactical scale.
Regards,
- Erik
