I may have asked this before...
Can someone suggest a TO&E for a reasonable (i.e. "average") sized DS2
game? Has anyone posted anything on the web?
I'm planning to, finally, paint some of my 6mm sci-fi stuff. I figure
that I can use them to playtest this SG3 game, when Jon writes enough
of it. They would also work well for playtesting DS3.
Depends on what your personal preference is. . . I mean, if you bought
30 tanks, then you need an armored battalion OB.
Usually a DS2 game runs from a reinforced company to a short battalion.
2-3 platoons of mech infantry, 2-3 platoons of armor, 2-3 specialty
platoons or sections depending on points available and percieved
threat.
Light infantry is generally useful in DSII only if you are fighting on
the defense in bad terrain--for enough maneuver to be worth bothering
with, you have to at least motorize it.
