The following is one of my incompletely equipped DS2 forces' TO&E -
Royal Russian Republic ( an 'associated' group out of the Romanov
Hegemony - i.e., too important to suppress but not important enough to
co-opt so send them to a frontier planet and have the secret police
observe.)
In SG 2 terms the RRR squads are 8 soldiers, either all male or all female,
usually the former. They are equipped with D6 personal armor, 6 of them carry
AARs and two serve as a crew for the AGL. This converts to D12 firepower
(until the first casualty of course) and D10 impact for the grunts. The
Support weapon uses a D12 foe firepower and a D8* for impact.
In DS 2 terms:
The numbers in brackets are the number of miniatures I actually have 'on
the shelf' or 'on order' currently, as in [ 6 + 2 ] meaning 6 on shelf
and 2 ordered.
ALL - Enhanced ECM, Enhanced GCS, Superior FCS, HMT Tech level,
Reactive armor.
Basic Line/Militia Platoons are Vehicle based with 3 vehicles per
platoon. A Company has five platoons (usually 3 of the basic kind and a fourth
of a "corresponding" kind (infantry if armor and vice versa) plus a fifth
Platoon of some other kind (recon for example.) There is a Command element for
the Company (depending on the basic nature of the Company) consisting of 2
vehicles. Battalions are three Companies (usually at least of two different
kinds) with a platoon size HQ unit and a support platoon of approximately 3
attached Specialist vehicles.
Platoon types would be:
ADS:
Size 3, FGEV, ADS/Bas, PDS/Enh, LAD. [1]
AFV:
LAFV: Size 3, FGEV, HKP/3, PDS/Sup, LAD. [2 + 1] Sometimes used
as a "5th" Platoon in Mechanized Companies. Brigade SF300-203
with 301b turret.
APC: Size 3, FGEV, FT x 3, PDS/Enh [0]
These are the regular "line" Infantry platoons. (5 Infantry, 2
APSW, 1 GMS/H, 1 LAD) Usually relegated to the Class
"B"
units (Active Reserves) Planning on getting 3-6 figures. No
model selected currently.
MICV: "Armored" Infantry - the most common kind of 'Infantry' in
the RRR.
Size 4, SGEV, HKP/3, FT x 2 ($ Infantry, 1 APSW, 1 LAD,)
PDS/Enh. The Most Common "infantry" formation in the RRR
TO&E. [4 + 2] Brigade SF300-303 with 203 turret.
AFV: Size 4, SGEV, HKP/4, PDS/Sup, LAD, additional APSW. [6]
Planning on more, 6 to 9. Most common AFV. Brigade SF300-301.
HAFV: Size 4, SGEV, HKP/5, PDS/Enh, LAD. [6] Brigade
SF300-201e.
Tube ARTY: Size 4, SGEV, RAM Gun, PDS/Sup, LAD, APFC. [3]
Brigade
SF300-201b.
MLRS: Pending. Maybe. Considering Pfc-in-C M270 MLRS (3 in a
blister)
6 mm miniatures rule!
