for bradly we just use warrior stats for the moment.

Except that the Bradely has a slightly greater anti-armour capability than Warrior does. :)

only in the form of the TOW, wich isnt always kept up with ammo supplies in some scenarios.

Bradley:
Main armament 25 mm M242 Chain Gun
TOW Anti-Tank Missile
7 TOW Missiles
Secondary armament 7.62 mm M240C machine gun


Warrior :
Main armament 30 mm L21A1 RARDEN cannon
Secondary armament L94A1 coaxial 7.62 mm chain gun
7.62 mm machine gun

they all prety much ballance out on a gmes table id say, plus its darn easy and no arguments ;)
 
This show was the most insulting piece of crap to ever come onto the screen.
I saw the first three episodes, just to confirm my opinion. The actors portrayed the most base of stereotypes, the stories were overblown, and the " morality crap" overshadowed the directors efforts to put together a good show.

As for a scenario...

OP 51.

1 squad of marines on a checkpoint vs 2 toyotas, a squad of Feds, and a backup in round 2 of 2 squads of MEF.
Game lasts for six turns, and can combine into " defend the line".
The tanks can move in in turn four, and if you wanted your QRF can turn up with half strength in turn 2 and start shooting at you for that extra " WTF!!!" roll to find out if you can convince your QRF that your not the bad guys, and at the end of the game, you can have a fight between the two american squads. :P :P :P
 
the bradley is a very impressive vechile .my bradley was hit 7 times with ieds no major damage . and i was in the back for three of them! several of the fire fights i was in . we'd be taking heavy fire and a bradley would roll up and start blasting away 25 mike mike . the 25 mm bushmaster chain gun fires amour peircing rounds or the favorite HE rounds . ive seen them tear peaople up cars buildings every thing . one great thing about the bradely compared the armies newer stryker . is its ability to pivot stear a complete 360 so it can turn around in tight streets and alley ways and intersections . the strykers has to three point turn . the bradely has a lot more weapons to bear to. all ways rember close infantry suppourt is what make vechile deadlier .
 
I was about 1.5 K's from a Bradley that got EFP'd in B'dad. The blast was enough to rattle my teeth still. Talked to some guys at the TOC later on and they said that the EFP had detonated the Bradleys ammo - but all of the dismounts in back were still OK.
 
LOL

You should have seen the look of shock on one kids face. He's walking through the US Customs lot and ends up kincking a piece of metal half sticking out of the sand. So he comes to me and asks "what's this?"

The feed tray cover for a 240 Machine Gun.

Found a few more odds and ends that day tucked in underneath HMMWVs and LAVs.

On a side note-
Shortly afterward the TCN Contractors were covering the desert parking lot in millions of dollars worth of taxpayer owned gravel (keeps the dust down). A steamroller would follow behind the dump truck, and this kid had to make sure they weren't up to any funny business.
The steamroller stops at one point, and the driver starts yelling at out young troop, and pointing in front of the steamroller.
There was a 60mm mortar round there.

Over the next few weeks we had to keep a close eye on the gravel trucks, because wherever they were digging this stuff up they were also digging up old landmines, RPGs, and mortars that looked as though they had been mixed in for years...

I was a bit more concious of where I walked after that.
 
I thought it was a very good show, certainly far better than a lot of crap which gets recommissioned year after year (Last of the Summer Wine, Big Brother, 24, Voyager, Family Guy etc)
