No more GW bashing! Hehehe.

Besides, you can always skip the messages you don't want to read. I'm not the
one who suggested placing a 40k style points system into a perfectly good
game. BTW...I love the post...forget who...from the person that wants to take
a million unclothed conscript troopers with hunting rifles for zero
points...Hahahahah...that's a classic. I can't help but bash GW when you
suggest placing elements of a clearly inferior game into one that works well.
I left GW, because of the inferiorty of
the products, now you're suggesting we place them in these games?   I
don't think so! Besides, how can you be so sure about the difficulty in making
a
scenerio when you haven't even played the game yet?   Is there no one
you can try it out with? If you're anywhere near me, I'd be glad to play. I'm
really not that bad of a guy, I just hate GW. I started following them over 10
years ago..and somehow I feel empty, like God has just up and
died...well...O.K. it's not that dramatic. After playing my FIRST game of
Stargrunt...I sold over ten years worth of 40K stuff...all of it. If I want to
bitch a little about the bad qualities of a broken game creeping into my new
hobby, I think I have earned the right. Actually, I argee. I am much more
interested in discussing Stargrunt and other current GZG games, so I will drop
the GW bashing, but if people insist in trying to interject GW ideas into
these games...I have to scream. Now...I have an entire platoon of Neu Swabian,
with APC's and Air support, anyone want to fight?

Sure, will you go up against an NAC company with three line platoons, a power
armor platoon, heavy weapons, tank support, and a couple of gunships?

The one who dies with the most toys wins:)

Actually I would take them on in a defensive position: Platoon minus, heavy EW
and Air Defence and 2d12 mines!?

The bigger they are, the easier they are to nuke from orbit. I would just
paint a big target on top of an Ogre Mk V. That waythe orbital ships and
aircraft could spot it quicker.

I'd make the Orge worth about 1500 pts.  Sound good? ;-)

So how would they fare against my (1) Ogre Mk V? (Rememberiing that it takes a
tactical Nuke just to scratch the paint?)

   8D

That would be about right -- each side would have a roughly equal chance
of winning! Good choice!

Let's see, damage 100, 2 pulsars, 6 vortex missiles, 6
