Re: [DS] Force List for Review

A heavy tank unit of just two tanks is kind of...light on the numbers
(not a lot of firepower--assuming the tanks are "normal" size).

Unless you've got something you are defending, the infantry is going to
get left in the dust so you really need to have some APC/IFV types.  If
you are limited by your mini's, I'd turn the J Edgars into largish IFVs
(2 inf elements, GMS/H, APSW).	That should do the trick.

And don't forget that you will have to "pay" for your artillery
ammunition.  If that seems a bit expensive for you, you could turn the
missile carriers into SLAM tanks and fill out that heavy tank unit of
yours.

Just an idea or two.

  Hello All,
   
	  OK I am scheduled to play my first DS game this Saturday. Here
is the force I was thinking of using. We are going to use 3,000 points.
This force is 2,941. I made it up based on Minis I already own.
   
	  All constructive criticism would be helpful and appreciated.
