Interesting, I don't imagine you would need too many specific weapon specialists but rather guys who are proficient at anything. Aside from perhaps a sniper or two just to cover everyone. I don't know if they would want to be lugging around heavy weapons either. Maybe a few get an M203. The element of surprise probably being the most important factor so one would need guys that are really sneaky. I'd say reconnaissance types would be the most useful with Airborne and SCUBA training. So SEALs and Marine Recon? Although Special Forces Green Berets get that training as well.
Well of course there is Snake-Eyes Flint Duke Gung-Ho Torpedo Beachhead Leatherneck Wet-Suit Falcon Stalker But which of the 4 snipers would bring the most benefit to the team? Barrel roll is a pilot as is Hallow- Point?

Now that CaptBritain showed up I just realized I never really include BigBen? I guess since his figures seem to be suited for cold weather I tend to overlook him but since he is SAS he probably has more training than just about anyone.

hehehehe, this reminds me of the game they play on another forum, draft Joes into teams and then set the teams against each other in a tournament of missions...
Big Ben Eagle Wet Suit Falcon Valkyrie (Joe Canuck exclusive) Natalie Poole Snake Eyes that's a team that can kick any kinds of ass, has people with medical, EOD, signals and marksman training. |

I don't have anything of value to say. I'm just posting to help bump the page count on this already massive thread

Well he was available over here under ARAH (and it might have even been in the period when it was still branded Action Force, but not as part of the original straight arm Action Force (Palitoy) run)

I didn't think he was sold over here.
he was released in 1991 in the US, so that would've been around 1992 in the UK - given that figures were usually a year or two later coming out here, so he would've been in the GI Joe era. Hasbro-packaged AF was 1987 to 1989. GI Joe: The Action Force was 1990. 1991 to 1993 was just 'GI Joe'. I admit, I'm going off BFTB not listing him for over here. I thought he was, cuz I thought the 'International Action Force' set was sold over here too, but I admit, I could be confused about that. |

Ok so then which sniper do you take? Do you bring 2 or just one? Is Valkyrie a sniper? I haven't seen his filecard?
