Why piecemeal reinforcements fail to build local strength

The repeated small groups in Space Marine 2 illustrate the difference between feeding in reinforcements and concentrating them.

Notes

Repeated small enemy groups in Space Marine 2 prompt a criticism of piecemeal reinforcement. Sending three attackers against three defenders fails to create the superiority that a larger group of twelve or twenty would offer in the example. The recommendation concerns concentrating the available attackers in the game, with no fixed numerical rule proposed for real battles.
