Here at Murphy's Heroes we have playing FoW and "I ain't been show
mum" recently, so a group based system with SF flavour would probably
be welcome.
However, just a wild question: do you need two systems for platoon level
and company level games? Wouldn't it be enough to have an activation
system which scales from individual figures to groups or squads?
