I see rules for the Grease gun, but what are the rules for the Thompsan?
I would like to include it in my American forces. Any info would help.


Thanks
 
The rules are general enough that weapons of the same class mostly use the same stats. I'd just use the same stats for the Thompson as the rest of the SMGs.
 
If you haven't already downloaded them, there's an update (and a playsheet) on the BF:E page (from this site's homepage) that gives the stats for the US .30cal MMG which replaces the .50cal in US infantry squads. Might want to take a look at Agis's books too(he's got a thread for them on here) which have more complete army lists than the ones in the rulebook.
 
Haven't looked for a while. Is there data on the 60mm mortar for the Yanks yet? It's part of every airborne platoon TO&E I've found. It's also part of every armored rifle platoon TO&E I've found.

Included in Pacific War, and as said the same stats as every other SMG.
