Don't get "creative" with this. Follow the procedure used in other OOB's and other OOB's do not have ammo trucks in Mech infantry companies OR "command" sections with three men. You might as well just name them "kill me first" and be done with it

If you're building this with the intention of sharing it with a few dozen players by all means build it however you like. However if you are building it with the idea of *maybe* offering it as a candidate for "Official OOB" status where 10,000 people will see and use it then follow the procedures used in the existing OOB .

Thanks Don - we're just starting with this, so that's why I was asking... our intention should be to follow the rules and try to make it an official candidate as a long-term goal - it will be alot of work and that should be useful for everyone of course.

So - Siddhi - what do we do with all the command and XO sections, etc? We'd better only have one company command section (classes as Recce, +3 Exp/Morale?) with more men, as with other OOBs, is that acceptable? The 5-men support sections could be left as they are... but we'd better rename them to avoid misunderstandings - they are only lightly armed and not used for fire support, only supply, right?

For your own scenarios you could modify that anyway if you want a 100% correct force.
