I'd like to stick in a recommendation for Main Force Miniatures "Company
Packs" for modern microarmor.  They run similar in size the the (already
mentioned) Battletech infantry.  They come mounted from 1 to 4 on a 1/2
inch
square to 1x3/4 inch base,  generally in a prone, firing pose.	Air
defense
missle troops are mounted singly, standing.  Support weaps are in pairs,
infantry fire teams come 3-4 on a stand, prone with kneeling officer
(looking
through binocs!) 

I believe Main Force operates out of Ireland,  with US distribution
handled
by Simtac, but I'm not certain of this.
