Re: Cross Over from FT3 (Fleet Book) to DirtSide and StarGrunt

IIRC, according to the section I wrote in MT, 1 man requires 4CP, the
answer is 6 men in your 25CP. This figure assumes reasonable
accommodation
in cabins and communal areas. Compare it with the 1 man per CP in cold
sleep. Please check the section in MT as I don't have my copy to hand.

    25 Capacity points in DSII can hold 6 infantry teams, with one point
spare. Each team is either 4-5 guys with small arms or 2-3 guys with a
specialist weapon.

>(assuming I need to travel with them).
    There's that spare capacity point, just waiting for you! ;-)

>How many in cold sleep?
    How big is the cold sleep capsule? While the 25 Capacity points can
hold
6 teams of soldiers and their equipment, this is only while getting on
to
and maneuvering on the battle field. It's pretty cramped in a APC/MICV.
    So, I would say that the 25 capacity points would be OK for 6
infantry
teams for up to one day. For longer stays, assume that this is the cold
sleep capacity. For long stays and in normal living conditions, I would
double (or triple) capacity requirements, say, 50 (or 100) capacity
points
for 6 infantry teams.

    I would agree with roughly 100 DSII points to 1 FT/MT/FB point as a
cost
of manufacture.

Just my interpretation and keeping consistent between SG, DSII & FT.
