Awesome, thanks Zulu. I'll always gladly accept (and appreciate) your advice.
Like Troynos, I'm in the middle of solidifying my operational and base Hq units and have been having some problems when it comes to who goes where. Do you think a unit like the Joes would have their own intel analysts for things like MASINT, TECHINT, GEOINT etc ? or would they just have specialists who harness this info from other downstream intel agencies? |

Zuludelta got me thinking about my Action Force team. I added everyone he had on his original outline. However I want to keep Olktober Guard members seperate.
In there place I added: **White Clown **Capt. Minh **Street Hawk (Loved the old show) **Supercop (Got that from Tyroc, however I named him Nicholas Angel, from Hot Fuzz) **Kwinn **CIA Agent Cullen Esterhazy (from Special Missions #14-15) Also thanks to Tyroc I added: Personnel Officer - Col. Courage Intelligence Officer - Col. James Braddock (Chameleon, Faces & Helix report to him) Operation Officer - Col. Samuel Trautman Logistics Officer - Maj. Templeton "Faceman" Peck Strategic Officer - Col. John "Hannibal" Smith Communications Officer - Col. Sharpe B.A. Baracus is now a Styker Driver for the Demolition Team Murdock is a Tomahawk pilot |

It depends on how you've defined the Joe's unit size. IIRC, your version of GI Joe is the same size as a Commonwealth squadron, a large US company, or a reduced US battalion (or am I thinking of somebody else's?). A unit like that would most likely have an S2 section comprised of "general" military intelligence specialists who analyse pre-collected and parsed intelligence products from other modality-specific downstream intelligence (GEOINT, MASINT, TECHINT, etc.) sources and agencies. They could have some HUMINT and counterintelligence-specific elements attached to them as they would be useful in a tactical intelligence context, though.

Tyroc, you've got more 80's TV characters on your staff than Joes. It's really fun.

Any 80's TV shows that are missing? Maybe I'll add Recondo as Commander "Magnum" Tom Selleck, once the POC Recondo comes out? Wasn't there one episode where he flashed back to Vietnam and he's in Tiger Striped Fatigues?

I'd rather give the staff roles to name joes but after placing most of them on the operator side, there weren't a whole bunch left for staff positions. I have a whole mess of custom characters too but would rather use them as enlisted. The joes need a whole bunch of officers and personnel who aren't army. Some marines, airforce guys who aren't pilots and Navy. Maybe some odd coast guard as well even though they're with Homeland Security. My maritime interdiction force will be mostly Navy and Coast guard Deployment Operations Group. Mostly CG seals and combatant craft crewmen learning from the Seals and SWCC. |

I think ROC Recondo is going to be bald. I thought I saw that in one of the pics from JoeCon. Even if he doesn't work as Magnum, he's going to be an awesome figure.

Street from SWAT would be cool.
The Blue Thunder TV show had those two ex-football players, Bubba Smith and Dick Butkus, that drove around in a van and provided support for the helicopter.

What about a "Dukes of Hazzard" crossover episode of the cartoon?
Boss Hogg allies himself with Cobra Commander who wants to turn Hazzard County into another Springfield and the Joes have to recruit Bo, Luke, Daisy, Cooter, and Uncle Jesse to help stop their diabolical plot. Hilarity ensues. There's a great scene between the Joes' laser rifle trooper and Roscoe's dog. Waylon Jennings records a special version of the G.I. Joe cartoon theme song (I realize he's dead, just go with me). Cooter has the most embarassing codename since Skidmark. Coy and Vance turn out to be the Crimson Twins in disguise. Clutch hits on Daisy. Shipwreck hits on Daisy. Just about everyone hits on Daisy. The PSA has Cross Country warning kids against the dangers of homemade hooch. |
