Subject: [GZG] Standardised forces and campaigns [SEC=PERSONAL]
Restarting this discussion back to game terms, it would help to know the campaign constraints you're trying to fit within. Known points: Quality: militia (green), regular (blue) and guard/elite (orange). Movement type: Fast GEV, HMT Infantry capacity: 2 teams. Preferred weapons: SLAM (for anti-infantry), MDC/HKP (for anti-tank) Info needed: # of factories (how many "sizes" of vehicle or total output per turn) Turns to "re-tool" factories Economic cost of vehicles/infantry (pts/$/etc if any) Any ongoing resupply/maintainance costs (such as trucking supplies) *** My suggestions: At minimum, you need at least 3 "factories" + 1-2 infantry "factories". 2 for line units and 1 for all your other specialty units (low numbers, but frequent design retool). Factory 1: MBT - size 3, HMT, Fast GEV, Armour/3, turret Sup HKP/4 or Sup SLAM/4, Enh PDS. Factory 2: AFV - size 3, HMT, Fast GEV, Armour/2, turret Enh MDC/2 or triple Enh GMS/L, APFC, 2 inf teams. Factory 3: Various specialty vehicles as required. Brendan 'Neath Southern Skies http://home.pacific.net.au/~southernsk/
