1. See this thread: http://www.closecombatseries.net/CCS/modules.php?name=Forums&file=viewtopic&t=11390&highlight=increase+number+soldiers
 
2. Short answer is add more companies in the "UnitStructure.txt" in DATA folder of GtC. - Try searching for this in the GtC or PITF sections at Matrix forums.

3. I have no idea how to do this.

The method I used to make 21 slots available to a platoon sized battlegroup was to edit UnitStructure.txt, create a 'dummy' battalion (403) that contained one 'dummy' company (404) that contained one soldier (405). Note the Soldier index # (69) is a custom 1 man 'dummy' team I added to Alsteams.txt but the same can be done by using the Sniper team# (2).

Replacement Btn. 403 0 0 4 0 0 404 404 404 -1 -1 -1 -1 -1 -1 -1 -1 -1 -1 -1 -1 -1 -1 -1 -1 -1 -1 -1 -1 -1 -1 -1 -1
Replacement] 404 0 0 3 0 0 405 -1 -1 -1 -1 -1 -1 -1 -1 -1 -1 -1 -1 -1 -1 -1 -1 -1 -1 -1 -1 -1 -1 -1 -1 -1 -1
Soldier] 405 0 0 2 0 0 -1 -1 -1 -1 -1 -1 -1 -1 -1 -1 69 -1 -1 -1 -1 -1 -1 -1 -1 -1 -1 -1 -1 -1 -1 -1 -1
 
After editing UnitStructure.txt I added several 'dummy' battalions in FPools.txt to the battlegroups I wanted to have 21 slots...

Editing more team slots is based on how slots are allocated, per section 9.1 in the manual:

Company-sized:  No available units in 2nd Platoon and 2 support units
Battalion-sized:  One squad (2 units) of 2nd Platoon and 3 support units.
2 Battalions:  HQ and 2 squads (5 units) of 2nd Platoon, 4 support units.
3+ Battalions:  Full 2nd Platoon (7 units) and 7 support units.

re: larger soldier sprites... there have been a number of mods for smaller soldiers to bring them more in line with the old, 5 pixels/meter map scale. AFAIK nothing has been done to make larger soldier sprites, but it can be done.
