Question Regarding Sections

By CSMason26, in Dust Warfare

Can someone explain this to me… Maybe I'm just a moron but reading the rules for the Platoon and the Sections, a Platoon is the make up of the Sections but is there a limitation to the actual sections? Example being, I plan on plating as Blutkreuz Platoon. There are the three options under the mandatory section, do I have to take ALL THREE before I can move to another section or can I just move onto another section and say pick… Laser Grenadiers from the 1st Section, then the Laser Grenadiers from the 2nd Section, and then the Laser Grenadiers from the 4th section?

I'm sure the answer is blatantly infront of me when it comes to the rules but… I just don't get that one aspect of it. It then leads me to a secondary question where, example… If you take Markus as an option for your Hero leading your army you can then have an entire platoon of Axis Gorillas. Does this mean I have an entire mandatory section of Gorillas or is it an entire Platoon of Gorillas? I guess I'm confused by the lack of strict guidelines to the platoon/section option. Sorry if this sounds like a stupid question.

Each section is comprised of a single unit chosen from the choices listed under that section. Its described in each armys platoon rules (pg 88 and 114).

Markus can only lead a platoon of apes (or join units of apes). If he is used as a leader the ape platoon is comprised of 1-4 units of apes only.

Thank you so much for your help. :)
