That's awesome Zulu, I like how you worked some of the guys into various niches. Poor Charbroil becomes a cook, lol.
Really well thought out. I like how you didn't stay too fixed on the various branches and worked them all together, which makes for a more cohesive unit and helps fill in alot of the "gaps" that pop up.

Why'd you put Iceberg as a Grenadier? Because of the gun he came with, I'd picture him as more of an automatic rifleman.

EDIT: And oh yeah, this means I'll be doing another round of revisions to some of the images and filecards I've previously shown to better match up with the finalized organizational outline. Last edited by zuludelta; 05-08-2009 at 05:58 PM.. |

In a typical squad, the grenadier, rifleman, and automatic rifleman are pretty much interchangeable (they're all MOS 11B -- infantrymen). They just get a particular designation for what weapon they're using in that particular formation (so a rifleman can be a grenadier if he decides to use an M203 grenade launcher with his M4 on that day). I went with "grenadier" for Iceberg since I'd already made the Iceberg image with him carrying an M4 with an underbarrel M203 grenade launcher, and didn't feel like re-doing the image

I like this overall, but I'm of the opinion that it's better to promote more of the Joes to leaders of their teams rather than being led by no name chatacters (see Assault Plt: Fireteam C and D). Beyond some personal preference quibbles, this is a really nice write up. It, like so many of the things you are doing, will continue to inspire many of my choices in terms of how I view the Joe team.

You know what I just realized, looking at my base... there's an awful lot of grass and such to landscape and maintain.
So who does that? Who gets stuck with the groundskeeper job on a top secret base? The rest of the personal is confined to base, so are the groundskeepers?

I'd hate to be the guy that's stuck on base, and can't have a life outside it, and all he does is cut the lawn.

Good point, I just might do that. Although I'll probably avoid it with certain characters whose "core" as I imagine it might be ruined with the promotion. One person I think in need of a promotion is Scarlett. I'd like to bump her up to CI Tech (the team's lead counterintelligence expert). I don't think "promoting" her to W-3 (the standard rank for CI technicians assigned to the Ranger Regiment) would age her too much... assuming she's one terribly smart and talented operative, she could make W-3 in maybe 9 years.
