Like many people (some of which are off list currently until they return from Iraq) you seem to be extrapolating from today and the near future and find the granularity of DS 2/SG 2 too coarse. Okay, then all the hyper-details of this process follow quite naturally. Since I am not an experienced SG 2 player I cannot comment on that until I get some more experience in the game. I find the granularity of DS 2 just fine since I view this as far future and by then we may have something like Space Marine's (Not the GW ones but the earlier FGU rules) "Ballistic Cloth" that completely changes the dynamics of small arms combat. Not that there are not parts of DS 2 that some consider broken but I have gotten away in my over 40 years of war games from any link to the old SPI "Simulation" syndrome and just enjoy the game. I am sure you enjoy the games you play but fractional FP scale is a bit too complicated for this old grognard. <grin> Have to admire all the effort you put into this though. While not my cup of tea I appreciate your work. Play on, sir, play on! 6 mm miniatures rule! Gracias,
