Yeah. The way I figure it, the AWE Striker makes more sense for a desert vehicle then the VAMP (it's lighter, and it actually resembles a Sand Rail. Out in Yuma, Arizona are these huge sand dunes, really loose sand and the people that ride on the dunes used modified dune buggies called Sand Rails. They are literally just a frame, seat, engine and driving components-brakes, steering, etc..). So the VAMP would be used in certain environments and the Awe Striker in others.
I disregard ALOT of the newer Joe vehicles, some are just redundant and have no use whatsoever. There's also too damn many SHARC variations to use realistically.
My Joes are divided up into:
Alpha and Beta Bases, North America and Europe. These are the big bases with the armor, artillery and air components of the Joe teams.
Then there are Foward Bases in Sierra Gordo, Trucial Abysmia, Greenland, and couple other locations. These would have a small armor, artillery and air components.
The Greenshirts make up the armor, artillery and infantry units. The rest of the Joes (Rangers, SEaLs, Marines and Special Forces) are the main mission guys. These are the ones that do the real meat and potatoes of the Joe work. The Delta Force type missions.
These guys are divided into:
Recon Teams (6 member units), there are 4 of them
Amphibious Assault (Marines, SEaLs)
VBSS Unit
Airborne Insertion (by helicopter or by HALO)
Special Forces
Typical Recon Team consists of:
CO
XO
Sniper
Pointman
EOD
???
Not sure what to make the 6th slot.
