SG2's leaders are usually too busy leading to bother firing, at least in
my games...

They do indeed exist, but you have to get them from GZG directly - that
is, from the UK.
They're great figures, really crisply sculpted & cast. Each pack of
eight
figures includes 1 SAW, 1 GMS/P, and six rifletroops, each one in a
different pose. There's only two packs in the range, though. One NAC
squad, and one ESU. I've got two platoons & a bit of the NAC troops, and
one of these days I'm going to finish off the whole company, with
modified
figures in support elements as well...
For some close-up photos of the GZG 15mm figs, go to the SG2 Gallery on
my
website: <http://warbard.iwarp.com/sg2gallery.html>
There's actually lots and lots of 15mm science fiction ranges available

I'll post my quick review of all the ones I know about later today. (and
I
really should stick it onto my website as well.
