RE: Stargrunt TOE's/OB

Ted, here's an Islamic Fed orbat I did. Not knowing the word processor
you use I've saved it out in a text file and there is a gif giving the
TOE as well. If you want it in its native form I have it in Word
8/Office 97.

ISLAMIC FEDERATION

Company Organisation

This is discussed under three levels of unit quality; the best armed and
trained being the first line Revolutionary Guard. Second Line troops are
the Line Infantry and the poorly armed and trained locally raised troops
within geographical regions are the Militia.

The following organisation outlines the doctrinal organisation for units
of the armies of the Islamic Federation. It should be noted that in
addition to normal variances of unit strengths due to battlefield
attrition, many individual and formation commanders routinely hire
foreign Mercenary Contract troops to supplement  unit effectiveness.
This is particularly noted in the Power Amour troops of the
Revolutionary Guard Battalions.

NOTES:

1. ONLY Revolutionary Guard have the PA/Assault Platoon.
2. Line Infantry have a platoon of PA attached at Battalion level
3.  Militia have NO PA troops.
4. Transport is Hover or Hi-Mob Wheeled vehicles for RG and Line.
Militia units field whatever locally acquired transport can be obtained.
Vehicles operate as an integral part of the squads.
5. The SMGs/Aslt Shotguns may be exchanged for Assault Rifles

Weapons and Equipment

The IF armies are generally supplied with equipment purchased from
Eurasian and NSL Arms Dealers; often less sophisticated and considered
out of date by Western defence analysts. However, the IF weapons are
still effective when used with skill.

Weapons 	 Assault Rifles generally carried are an earlier version
of the Eurie KI-72 FP2, Imp d10
		SAW conventional light machine gun  FPd8, Imp d10
		SMG/Assault shotgun FP3, Impd8
GMS/P is an earlier version of the Eurie GMS, but the basic Guidance
Systems (Guid d6, Imp d12) is compensated by deploying them in pairs.
Conventional sniper rifles are preferred although the IF snipers at
platoon level are not specially trained they are generally a better shot
than the average soldier. (FPd10, Imp d10)

Equipment	Body armour consists of a  heavy ferroceramic
'clamshell' back and breast plate and kevlar helmet. The helmet is often
discarded for traditional headdress. Great use is made of enhanced
optical surveillance equipment	and IR and Image Intensifiers are
carried in every squad (Enhanced Sensors -d8)

Power Armour

The member states of the Islamic Federation have not developed the
industrial base to produce their own Power Armour and are only now
gaining the necessary experience to train their own operators.
Consequently, great use is made of mercenary contracts to provide the
Power Armour.

Whilst appearing to be not as heavily armed or carry as sophisticated
weaponry as Western forces the greater flexibility of the two assault
and two weapons squads gives the IF a distinct advantage and they should
not be underestimated. Whilst the Militia and, to a lesser extent the
Line Battalions, are not as well trained as Western armies the
Revolutionary Guard are the equal of the Panzergrenadiers of the NSL or
the NACs Royal Marines. In particular their Jihad inspired ferocity
allows them to fight on when other troops would consider withdrawing.
