			The Recce Platoons of the 3rd Division are represented by the Queen's Dragoon Guards, albeit renamed to Support Troops. Composed of 3 or 4 infantry fireteams, the Recce Platoon's task was to serve as the sneaky-beaky eyes of the cavalry. While Scimitar and Scorpion troops would probe enemy lines for weakness in open ground, the Recce Platoon would do the same albeit in forests and other terrain features poorly suited for vehicles. This idea is only halfway represented; with the Recce Platoon lacking Scout or Spearhead but having historically correct armament (SLRs and a LAW or two). Recce Platoons would not need to be represented, as mechanized and airmobile units would have vehicular recon.

Costing a measly 4 points, Recce Platoons are exclusive to the Recce Squadron and can only be brought in once per squadron. More lightly equipped than the mechanized and airmobile platoons, the Recce platoon has two possible tasks: holding objectives (being too small and useless for offensives) or probing lightly defended forests. The task of engaging infantry can be handed over to the Spartans, whose GMPG fire can reliably pin small (<12 bases) units of infantry.

Typically composed of the fittest men in the company, the task of the Recon Platoon was to scout ahead of the main force and observe enemy movement while remaining undetected.
