I think it's relatively plausable, but it is certainly a departure from canon...and I like it.

The fact that I sense that Leg doesn't is a bit of a bonus, har har.
Do what you like, it's your game. You might want to be careful that it doesn't upset the balance too much though and give Nato too much power. Try beefing up one or more of the Pact units to compensate.

As Targan has said, change is good, as long as it doesn't give one side or the other an undeserved edge thereby radically altering the world. Even doubling the number or tanks a Division has on hand, or introducing a nuclear powered ship into the North Sea will seriously destabilise the delicate balance the designers created and result in a completely different strategic situation.

Every change can have unintended consequences. Every change needs to be thoroughly thought out with ALL the implications explored.
