RE: [DS,FT] NSF (Not my Bank Account)

Local Manufacture.

"Space is big...". Perhaps all military equipment would come from one
source. But, politically, it may be difficult. Local (regional)
manufacturers would want to dip their fingers into the pie. It is also
possible that all the local manufacturers would work off the same
template.
But, again, politics and economics may play a part (pay royalty to the
owning company for the template). 

I don't think that it would be too far a stretch for politics to impose
a
unit based in a region to use x% of local manufactures or give
preference to
local manufacturers. Such things are already done (in the US) for small
businesses and minority owned businesses. 

Odd vehicles could be locally produced vehicles. Or it could be that the
odd
vehicle is the "centrally produced" vehicles and the others are the
locally
produced ones.

Subject: [DS,FT] NSF (Not my Bank Account)

I'm referring to Non-Standard Forces - those ships and vehicles that
I've 
acquired singly and/or kit bashed, the stuff that is either to
out-of-scale 
with my normal units (My Battletech and micromachines vehicles are much 
bigger than my C-in-c, GHQ, and smaller GZG stuff), or too individual to
fit

into a TO&E, but looks too nifty to just not use.  How do most people
deal 
with these figs?  I was thinking of using the "Local-militia-acquired
stuff 
that isn't standardized but gets thrown into the battle because it's
handy."

tack.	Any other suggestions?
