I'm probably a minority on this list, in that I use the GZG figures for Very
High Tech (aka "Star Wars") type games. However, these type of games
*are*
very popular in general with the 15mm crowd (see the 15mm Sci-Fi
discussion group and the various Star Wars gaming groups). So, having said
that:

> 1) Tracked vehicles = 3

Hmm... mechs? There are plenty of good mech lines already out there that
can pass for 15mm battlemechs or even exo-suits in the classic sense.
However, if a line of mechs standing 15-20mm tall were to come out (i.e.
an expansion of the current 6mm walker concept) then it would open the door to
mass mech combat. This is something no one else does... which means it could
be a really good idea or really bad one, but I like it!;)

I would also like to add

> 8) Air support = 4

VTOL APC's, gunships, skimmer fire support, whatever - the current
selection (Brigade) is pretty small, if nice.

I use 'em for Traveller, usually representing tech level 12+, so we
may be a minority, but we're by no means alone.

My group doesn't use 15mm, so I'm not going to taint the survey.
