Combat suggestions... (for patches?)

So you are sure these panzers won't come from the right, because your hoplites will stay alive long enough to even tell you what happened? ;x

It's just not only unbalanced to help flanking with outdated units, it's just unrealistc too ^^
Strength should matter somehow.

Even if the hoplites don't report the attack, you'll know something is up when you lose radio contact.

And if a tank blitzes through the hoplites and attacks your modern unit in the same turn, well, hey, your modern unit lost the flanking bonus. Works as intended.

While I like this in theory, I do not want to have to use a calculator/spreadsheet to workout the Strength of every unit in my defensive lines each turn.

Being able to tell at a glance what the relative strengths of units are is HUGELY important to me.

I believe it wouldn't be too difficult to put a nice UI for my idea...
hovering mouse or right-click on actve unit... or on target tile...
