US Division Engineers?

I have a US Tank Heavy Task Force to which I wish to attach an engineer company from the Division engineers. However, the only engineer assets I can find are in the Engineering Support menu and those are truck or leg units, or a bridging units. Are the M113 equipped Division Engineers available? if so, in what menu?

I don't think we did division level engineering assets. If you have OOB and TOE data for them, I can add them to the data file for the US.

I'll see what I can find.

Hey Blackcloud6, lemme break it down like a shotgun (heh) Did this research before the Breach mission last summer at Origins Con.
Div Engr Bde (Heavy Div: HHD (staff dudes_
3 x Engr Bn (1 to each maneuver Bde)
3 x Engr Co (Typically, 1 per maneuver Bn, but mission dependent)
2 x Engr Plt, 1 x Engr Assault and Obstacle Plt
Engr Plt:
1 x M47 Dragon (later FGM-148 Javelin)
3 x Engr Sqd
1 x M113A3
1 x Sqd w/demo kit
Engr Assault and Obstacle Plt:
1 x M47 Dragon (later FGM-148 Javelin)
2 x Assault Sec
2 x AVLB
2 x MICLIC
1 x Obstacle Section
2 x M139 Volcano
I left out blades, as we don't allow digging during a scenario.
My experience in 7ID(L) was each Engr Sqd had a Dragon. AT was a premium there, though.
This is not in the standard data sheets. I did a custom data sheet for the breach mission last summer at Origins. If you need more help, shoot me a DM. I think you got here what you need for essential engineering tasks. Pontoon boat bridges of that era were, I think, from Corp level brigades. Logistic bridges, not assault ones.I could well be wrong on that. Lemme know what you are trying to accomplish.
