OK. I'd understood that all brigades were dropping to 2 line battalions (armor, mech or Stryker) and a Stryker cavalry squadron, and that the light infantry battalions were the first ones to go to Stryker.

Where is the 170th IB(M)? That's a new one to me.

IMO, a split of half/half between heavy and light brigades works for me, but I would try to keep the heavies together in the same divisions. Counerinsurgency/peacekeeping/LIC division commanders aren't as needed as they are in high-intensity combat, so I think the command cohesion of the heavy divisions is pretty important.
