I think you may have been referring to the DRAKA books by David
Drake? Excellent SciFi/Combat writer. Check out his Hammer's Slammers
series - just screaming for the SG/DS/FT touch! In fact if you look at
the back of the DS Rules you will see him included in the recommended
reading AND GZG have a hover tank released called the Slammer!
Between David Drake, Jerry Pournelle and Gordon R Dickson you
would have a superlative SG/DS/FT omnibus. Oh well, dream on.
