Subject: Re: SG Genre
I have yet to play my first game of SG2. A game is planned at a local gaming club for late next month, so I've started to organize a small force. Since the FT games are set in the provided [GZG] background, I'm setting up my force to fit in. I plan to field a LLAR mercenary unit primarily concerned with counter-insurgency work. The platoon equivalent that I hope to have in place looks like: Command Squad: 4 men in partial combat armor, SMGs, vetrans. Recon / Counter-Recon Squad: 6 men in partial combat armor, Assault Rifles, vetrans. Fire Support Squad: 8 men in basic battle dress, various man portable projectile weapons, regular Sniper Squad: 4 men in basic battle dress, sniper rifles, vetrans I still have to work out the exact weapon mixes and their stats, along with their mechanized transports. I think the Recon and Fire Support Squads should have IFVs, with an APC shared by the Command and Sniper Squads.
