I'm looking for more Stargrunt TOE's/OB/Unit Listings. I know the
rule book has several and I've hit Evan Powles' Oceanic Union page and gotten
the OU and Indonesian lists. Has anyone worked up lists for the Pan African's
or the New Israelis? How about the Islamic Federation?

I've got an Islamic Federation list, by the same Owen Glover responsible for
the OU and Indonesians, and I'll post it to my web page soon (I've been saying
this for several months now, but my aged home PC is getting a new set of
innards this week and I'll no longer be forced to access the net from work,
removing many of my excuses for being on the slow side; though it won't make
me less lazy). I understand Owen has played with the New Israelis, using a
very small squad size (four, I think), but I'm not sure what his current
thoughts are and I don't have any NI figures myself.
Ted, here's an Islamic Fed orbat I did. Not knowing the word processor you use
I've saved it out in a text file and there is a gif giving the TOE as well. If
you want it in its native form I have it in Word
8/Office 97.

ISLAMIC FEDERATION
Company Organisation
This is discussed under three levels of unit quality; the best armed and
trained being the first line Revolutionary Guard. Second Line troops are the
Line Infantry and the poorly armed and trained locally raised troops within
geographical regions are the Militia.
The following organisation outlines the doctrinal organisation for units of
the armies of the Islamic Federation. It should be noted that in addition to
normal variances of unit strengths due to battlefield attrition, many
individual and formation commanders routinely hire foreign Mercenary Contract
troops to supplement unit effectiveness. This is particularly noted in the
Power Amour troops of the Revolutionary Guard Battalions.

NOTES:
1. ONLY Revolutionary Guard have the PA/Assault Platoon.
2. Line Infantry have a platoon of PA attached at Battalion level 3. Militia
have NO PA troops.
4. Transport is Hover or Hi-Mob Wheeled vehicles for RG and Line.
Militia units field whatever locally acquired transport can be obtained.
Vehicles operate as an integral part of the squads.
5. The SMGs/Aslt Shotguns may be exchanged for Assault Rifles
Weapons and Equipment
The IF armies are generally supplied with equipment purchased from Eurasian
and NSL Arms Dealers; often less sophisticated and considered out of date by
Western defence analysts. However, the IF weapons are still effective when
used with skill.
Weapons Assault Rifles generally carried are an earlier version
of the Eurie KI-72 FP2, Imp d10
SAW conventional light machine gun FPd8, Imp d10
SMG/Assault shotgun FP3, Impd8
GMS/P is an earlier version of the Eurie GMS, but the basic Guidance
Systems (Guid d6, Imp d12) is compensated by deploying them in pairs.
Conventional sniper rifles are preferred although the IF snipers at platoon
level are not specially trained they are generally a better shot than the
average soldier. (FPd10, Imp d10)
Equipment Body armour consists of a heavy ferroceramic 'clamshell' back and
breast plate and kevlar helmet. The helmet is often discarded for traditional
headdress. Great use is made of enhanced optical surveillance equipment and IR
and Image Intensifiers are
carried in every squad (Enhanced Sensors -d8)
Power Armour
The member states of the Islamic Federation have not developed the industrial
base to produce their own Power Armour and are only now gaining the necessary
experience to train their own operators. Consequently, great use is made of
mercenary contracts to provide the Power Armour.
Whilst appearing to be not as heavily armed or carry as sophisticated weaponry
as Western forces the greater flexibility of the two assault and two weapons
squads gives the IF a distinct advantage and they should not be
underestimated. Whilst the Militia and, to a lesser extent the Line
Battalions, are not as well trained as Western armies the Revolutionary Guard
are the equal of the Panzergrenadiers of the NSL or the NACs Royal Marines. In
particular their Jihad inspired ferocity allows them to fight on when other
troops would consider withdrawing.
