Re: FSE

I certinally plan to use my own ideas .. and imagination. But having
only
just stepped out of a spoon fed Games Workshop enviroment I am looking
about
the place for inspiration and ideas .. So far I have decided to build a
company which I will make 3 platoons which I plan on being 3 units .. 8)

I am sticking to the 8 man units that seem to be the FSE standard but I
have
decided not to go with the "outworld" style force as mentioned in the
book
for the FSE

My command unit is built as in the book but I am using the generic
commander
and staff at the table as the command and plan on building a little
Tarpolin
covered command area. This unit travels in a wombat as they need to be
mobile and the extra weapons add some support to the unit which
esentially
is a point of operations. So unit 1 for me is

Command Unit

High Commander + 2 staff
1 Subordinate commander
2 Snipers
1 Comms Trooper
1 Medic
 + Wombat and mobile command post (Tents basically)
(The wombat has a lot of the extra vehicle bits to make it look special)

Unit 2 Elite Troops

8 Power Armour guys with optional transport - Havent decided what that
will
be yet ... off to the Eureka site to decide soon 8)

Unit 3
Veteran Troops 8 - With Wombat or other APC

- Extra 2 bike scouts

Thats my first platoon

>From there I am hoping to make something like a heavy support platoon,
something like a unit made up of 3 tanks  then a support unit with techs
etc
and a third unit being heavy weapons specialists .. obviously for use
only
with bigger games 8)

My last I am hoping to make grunts 8) .. Standard run of the mill cannon
fodder regular troops .. no vehicles as they would be dropped in as the
leading force ... Well at leats thats the plan right now

re: Full Thrust I am planning to just use The "How many currently in
service" as a guideline I like building large forces then picking what I
need from them for a given game .. So I plan to make a fairly large
thrust
fleet that would represent a sizable force that would be sent out with a
high command for a major mission ..
