Ok, so I may be almost totally influenced by a thread from almost a year ago, which was brought up recently (which I loved btw), but with some changes. So here we go.
Your budget is 1,000,000 credits, with which you have to put together a mercenary unit.
Books are the main one, military vehicles, and the CsC (also mercenary, but you will have to tell me exactly what it is, as I have left the book in a box somewhere).
Assume you can recruit as many men as you need.
Men come at 7,7,7,7,7,7, with 1 skill at 2 and 2 skills at 1.
The parameters otherwise are:
Tl 12
Must be able to operate in any terrain.
They do not have to be logisctically independant (i.e, they don't haveto bring their own fuel tankers and the like).
They cannot be totally air unit based (i.e, no fighter squadrons.)
Support has to be organic. No asking for arty or air support without paying for it. You're welcome to design the cheapest bomber in the world though.
Format of the tournament will be round robin. Participation is limited to four players (first come, first served). Die rolls, modifiers and their effects, and exact damage results will be made public after the fact.
There is no required format for submissions, but please bear in mind the more detail included the easier it is for the ref to verify the design. Therefore, please include, at a minimum, tonnage and cost of each component.
Although not required until later, each player should also construct standard operating orders detailing, sensor use, targeting methodology, computer use, tactical philosophies, and so on in order to minimize the possibility of the ref mis-interpreting your intentions.
Submissions can be made on here or through PM if you want to keep it secret.
The contact will take place in a random location from the following list:
1. Urban
2. Open plain/ scrub land
3. Forest
4. Swamp
5. Desert
6. One of the above + rain/snow
There will also be a variable objective list, including:
1. assault/defend
2. patrol meeting
3. ambush
Any suggestion may well be added, especially in regards to terrain and objective lists.
