If the los is long say as in the steppes they have to be in los to be within minimum supply range. They are also worth the most vps and easiest to kill. Lastly they will no more than get within range and have to move again. Regiment will work just as well as long as you move all the companies out of their battalions and keep them under the regiment in the OOB file.
VE
I make all my decisions and plans on Bn level (more than on Rgt level), also in larger scenarios. I feel unhappy in VE scenarios because of this omission and complain about it a lot to my opponents... Not many disagreed with me though. It might be an idea to leave them in (except for Arty Bn HQ perhaps) as I think the advantage of leaving them out does not weigh up to the trouble caused of not having them when you're used to using them in all other scenarios.
The same way I was shocked to see that in "A Close Run Thing" the company mortars and the support companies were left out. In company tactics they are key elements, for me at least.
