Your work here does reflect the somewhat variable squad size well. I had seen the smaller dismount teams listed in later sources. This is sometimes attributed to smaller squads, and sometimes to the squad leader staying inside the BMP. Your point values seem pretty close to what I'd expect...

I agree that your system is more how the Russians use sniper rifles. My information, which is two decades old, indicates that one rifleman in in each platoon is assigned an SVD, rather than it being an additional soldier. What is your source? You also mentioned points costing these units...

If it's nit-picky editing errors you want found, I have another couple. :) In the stats for the BRM-1, there is a copy and paste error in the coaxial rule. The rule has the coaxial MG with a 30mm cannon, when the vehicle has a 73mm cannon. The weapons table does not list the PKT MG. It's...

I just found this thread, so sorry I'm chiming in so late. I really like what's been done with the Russian recce platoon. I do have a few questions on it, though. On the BRDM-2, I am fine with putting the Kord 12.7mm machine gun on it in place of the KV 14.5mm, since I would have used the...

I just downloaded the Russian one. Thank you. I'll look through it and see what I think. I can see it has some of the older vehicles I was going to add myself. Sevya

Some friends and I have been playing Battlefield Evolution: Modern Combat recently, and I was wondering if anyone had made any updates to the force lists from the core rulebook. I was particularly looking at the Russian and Middle Eastern forces. Has anyone done any work on these force lists...

If it's from older Traveller material, you'd probably get the original author's permission, first. I'm not trying to shoot this down. I think it's a great idea, and have put thought to it myself. I just want to make sure one stumbling point is covered. Sevya

So, most people are going with maroon uniforms with maroon insignia? Not saying that's wrong, just clarifying. In the artwork on the box from the Grenadier 25mm set, the armor looks lighter than I would call maroon. It seems to have an orange look. The scan posted matches my copy. BFalcon...

When I was in the US Army National Guard, our issue uniforms consisted of: Summer weight Battle Dress Uniforms (BDU's) Winter Weight BDU's Class A/B uniform (Dress/business casual) PT/workout uniform. There were, of course, accessories, such as a field jacket, belts, boots, headgear, etc. Sevya

I'm curious where the fact that the Imperial Marines uniform is maroon came from. In the Imperial Encyclopedia (MegaTraveller) it says the starburst insignia on marine uniforms is maroon. Is there some resource I don't have access to that delineates out uniform colors? As for the Imperial...

Pretty sure. At least you're not entirely him. New body, and all... Sevya

Since it sounds like the girlfriend is an NPC, the biggest factor hasn't been addressed. What does your GM think? None of the excellent viewpoints expressed here will have any effect if the GM running the game doesn't agree with them, or even read them. That said, the old Norse seem to have...

For a few PC figures in 15mm, I strongly recommend RAFM's support staff set, on this page: http://www.rafm.com/Merchant2/merchant.mvc? It includes a selection of races. They're called different things, but I'm pretty sure they used to be Traveller figures. 3 Aslan, 2 Droyne, 2 Humans, 2...

I'm going to go through the questions a few posts up. This is all my own thoughts, so don't take them as absolute answers. Yes, the erect legs are the way you want to go with this. From the description, I believe the intent of the tactile sensor is to place it on the end of a limb so that...

That would probably depend on definitions. A biologically grown human shaped body does not necessarily come from human DNA. To comply with local ethical standards, a company might feel compelled to develop a biological frame from other genetic stock. Why was their blood white? I have no...
