M113 and sheridan are really too heavy to actually be carried by chinook - you should limit yourself to a jeep/hummer and when doing so, no extra passengers. Chinooks rarely actually carry vehicles, just grunts.

Otherwise you are simply using/bending the game system mechanics to allow yourself unrealistic outcomes compared to real life.

Didn't know that. It makes total sense and I'll rememeber that in the future. I guess that when I loaded a Sheridan into a Blawkhawk on the last two turns, it was more than stretching reality.

My turn around time would be 3-5 days. I'm not sure if you want to play a game that may last two months. But I am feeling more confidant at MBT. I'll look at my schedule and see what we can make happen.
