Symmetry

Random thought I had, and realized it needed to be put down:

There is a lot to be said about a symmetrical army.  Set up your forces in such a manner that it has a certain symmetry to it, the same when it is put on the table.  If you take one unit, have another one identical (or, near identical, anyways) if you can.  There are going to be units you only take one of, given, but for your main forces (your troops and their primary support), you want doubles.  If you have 3, then that is fine as well.  Take your first two, and your third acts as a middle support pillar, aiding whichever most needs it.  This helps your army immensely.  When you form your army on the tabletop, do the same.  Place your army so it near mirrors itself, this gives you an even defense against both sides.  Run any single units in the middle, as this allows them to flex and maneuver to either side and lend support.  If you have all of your troops on one side, and your vehicles on the other, then they cannot support each other.  Take from this what you will, but following this will help you immensely.
