If I want a challenge I run my border guards.  All
size-2 vehicles (the minis are all LAV variants).

So far, they have a pretty damn good track record.

The tank hunter with the twin GMS/H launchers sounds
nice.  Also plenty of scatterable minefields, Towed
artillery (since SP won't fit), and VTOL support.  I
can eat 'em for lunch.

I don't.  I do like putting designs in situations that
they weren't really intended for and seeing if they
can cope.  See my comments re: border guards.
