RE: FMAS names

>Killing Ground

Nothing to do with Skirmish, though

>Combat Team
>-- Visions of Harold Coyle or Tom Clancy...
Yep.  I think of "combat team" as about a regiment, not a squad.

>Man Down
>-- Like it! (It describes what happens most of the time...)

How about "Take Cover"

>Weapons Free
>-- This (for me) conjures a more naval image... or air force...

agree

>CQB (Close Quarters Battle)
>-- Or Close Action? Or Close Contact? Close Contact would be good to
cover
the description of a skirmish game with a 1":2m groundscale.... 
>Close Assault (probably used)
>-- Possibly not... and it does describe a game mechanic

"Close Action" is good, or "Close Assault"

>Hostile Contact! 
doesn't flow

>Target Destroyed
skirmish?

>Killing Ground (another Sun Tzu hommage)

ok

>Orbital Assault 
skirmish?

I think "Stargrunt:Man to Man" and "Stargrunt:Platoon" might work,
despite TomB's disinclination.
