RE: do GMS/P troopers carry ARs?

Hmm, back to the time thing. Quoting Jon T from the rules again, FOR
CAMPAIGN PURPOSES if you really need to measure time assume a game turn
is 5
minutes....so a squad activated TWICE is doing 4 Actions in the CAMPAIGN
5
minutes.....

I think this is really important to remember when we are talking about
how
long things take and whether things can happen automatically or need an
Action to resolve?
