So let's say that Cobra declares all out war on the Joes--I mean they decide to launch every cobra soldier, every single piece of armor and aircraft. A full scale assault and the Joes must defend with every man, woman and piece of weaponry they have. Since your Joes can't be in two places at once, who mans what vehicle and what station for the playsets?
In other words, who's in the Devilfish? Who's riding shotgun with Clutch in the VAMP? Who's helping man the Mobile Command Center and Defiant? Who's working the main gun in the Headquarters? Is anyone keeping security on the prison cell? Who's on the bridge with Keel-Haul in the Flagg? What aircraft are stationed on the deck? Where's your FLAK based? Who's keeping a lookout in the watchtower,in the bivouac and the mortar defense unit? What vehicles are towing the Whirlwind and the HAL?
Feel free to take your time with this and/or divide stuff up into sections. You may use multiple versions of the same character if you like. For instance, Duke might fly with Wild Bill in the Dragonfly, while Tiger Force Duke rides sho-go in the Tomahawk.
I did have a pretty good list for this but I modified it to include BBI aircraft and tanks. I'll see if I can find the original draft with all the Joes divided up into different Joe vehicles before I added the BBI stuff.
Man I had a whole thing written out and I forgot to hit submit. I feel this is almost too hard to do. As a kid I just followed the box art. (but Rock'n'Roll is on a lot) I don't usually use two of the same guys in different outfits. The other problem is there is almost too many stations and vehicles to manpower available. The General and the Crawler need a crew of 12 alone!
Anyway, one way to do it would be to break it down to years. Anyone who didn't get a vehicle or battle station could go to a later year like roll over minutes.
So not including the drivers
1982
FLAK-Grunt
RAM-Snake-Eyes
Shotgun in the VAMP-Hawk(since they will be towing the MMS)
JUMP-Stalker(I always gave it to Starduster)
1983
Whirlwind-Rock'n'Roll
APC-Gung-Ho and Doc
HQ-Scarlett and Breaker on the console
Zap on the main cannon
Flash on the stand-up gun
MANTA-Torpedo
Dragonfly copilot-Airborne of course
Skystiker copilot-Tripwire
PolarBear-Snowjob
(I left out the Falcon I know but I don't own one)
1984
Skyhawk-Duke
Whale-I always used the Renegades but I guess Spirit and Mutt
Howitzer-Recondo
(I never owned the following)
Bivuoac-Ripcord
Missle Defense Unit-Blowtorch
Mortar defense unit-Short-Fuse
Machine Gun Defense Unit-Roadblock
watch tower-hmmm now I'm out of guys
and I have another problem with the VAMPII since I don't use guys twice
I need a better method.
