How many bases do you want to construct?
Added: Will each base have a well-rounded unit capable of operating independently of others? |

Yeah, going back to my original idea of pretty independant area-specific bases with a floating team of specialists (the really sneak/black-ops/kind of guys: Stalker, Flint, etc..).
North America will be the main base. Contain the main command center, the training center, the R&D, the labs, engineers, etc.. Steel Brigade will also be out of this base, for major urban conflicts. Sierra Gordo will be the jungle base. Trucial Abysmia will be a smaller (not completely independant) base in the desert. Greenland will be a smaller (not completely independant) arctic base. Asia will contain the last base. I'm thinking each base has an infantry unit, a small armor unit and a small air unit. My air units won't have any fighter jets, be ground support only. So no Skystrikers or Conquests. The stealth will be out of the NA base. The rest of the air unit will be A-10s, Skyhawks and Skysweepers (the new RoC ones).

OMG!! You have Harm from JAG? That's awesome. You need Mac (who was HOT!!) and Admiral Chedwiggen. I loved Chedwiggen.
Tackleberry and you codenamed him Hightower? That's awesome.

I wanted to use Super Cop (Funskool Slaughter)but the name just sucked. Was watching a repeat of Police Academy one day and voila..
I like your use of different bases. I have something similar. I have the bulk of my team at the Pitt then all the sabre squadrons operate out of the different playsets Alpha - The Ark (Pitt) Mobile Bravo - The General Mobile Delta - The Crawler (MCC 2002) Mobile Arctic - The Coffin (HQ 1983) Greenland Desert - The Rock (MCC 1988) Trucial Absysimia Marine Interdiction - The Reef (Tactical Battle Platform) Florida Keys Urban - The Loft (Ft America) Mobile Tiger Force - The Den (BTR Hq) Sierra Gordo Night Force - ??? (???) Gulf of Mexico Tiger and Night Force both started as Red Cell teams, originally made up of existent joes. They were the war games opponents but as Cobra has expanded so has their operational focus. Tiger Force is where I put the guys from the Unit and Dutch's team from Predator. Night Force is a WIP |

Wow this is aawesome. I love all the additional characters. Do you have figures for the A-Team? What about the rest of your custom characters? Like Slide Rule and Hazard and Tundra?
Is Colonel Storm a Major or a Colonel? Love the Idea of Network for Abel Shaz. Good name. Talon as well. Now I need to redo mine altogether. I only use one figure per character so everytime there's say a new Duke or Road Block I use them as a new character. I still try to keep them in the spirit of the original though. Like the ROC Cover Girl I'm using as a Pitt HR specialist called 'Catwalk' Hazard is the TF Outback Tundra is the Tundra Ranger Stalker Slide Rule is the Stars and Stripes Zap etc Haven't decided whether Storm is a Major or a Col. I've given a few characters a promotion so I guess I should make him a Light or Full Bird. Steeler is a Major in my verse because he's been around so long Wherever possible I try to make the original 13 troop or chalk leaders. Last edited by Tyroc; 08-26-2009 at 10:43 AM.. |

Night Force is a WIP You could use the ROCC for the Urban Team and move the Ft America to Night Force. Or use the RHINO. What about the Rolling Thunder? I use it as my Infantry Command Vehicle. |
