Thanks.  Between GZG and Martian Metals (with some Ral Partha and Peter
Pig)
I should be able to field these.  I want to do the Thunder on Zyra
mini-campaign as a friend of mine wrote it of so many years ago (though
we
never had a chance to play it out).

I haven't worked up the stats yet. Playtest is a couple weeks away. I'm 
finishing up painting now.

I have a platoon of GZG NI as the mercenaries with 2 DLD Kammodo APC's 
to represent the Traveller 10 ton ATV's and an air/raft for support.

The TLF rebels are represented by a company (8 10 man squads) of Peter 
Pig AK47 troops (SADF with SLR's and GPMG's). Plus there's my 
ever-present boatload of civilians.

There are also some Sword Worlds "advisors" represented by some Citadel 
Mid-Tech troops and Old Crow Grav Glaive APC's (if necessary).

It's a farming town so I've got a bunch of Crescent Root Studios 
Normandy buildings and TimeCast Vietnam Range buildings.

I have to work out some rules of engagement for the mercenary platoon. 
They'll be penalized from a victory point standpoint if excessive force 
is used and civilians are killed. I figure the mercenaries have to get a

full effect spotting roll before fire or there's a chance of collateral 
damage. Any ideas?

Also, they have some support in the form of the missile rack on the 50 
ton Pinnace, but they'll be penalized if they have to use it.

I'll be glad to forward stats when I have them worked out.
