SPECS? Well.... which shall they use?

SHMEL or TOW?



The new unit could either carry something like SHMEL, as in the 
following link:

http://www.kracik.com/me/w_shmel.html

this one is sutible for single soldier,

however, if they are to use the other one, as the following link:

http://www.hqmc.usmc.mil/factfile.nsf/0/4ba8f1e3958ca16d8525628100789abb?OpenDocument

they will need hammer or jeep.


The TOW is exactly what we already have: the scouts.




Currently, available units have the following spec:

   Unit Name,   Anti Ground, Anti Air, Anti Ship, Speed, Armor

Heavy Tanks     20           10        20         7      20

Medium Tanks    15           0         15         8      15

AA Tanks        12           20        12         9      15

Scout           15(1-2)      0         12(1-2)    10     10                      
Infantry        10           8         10         6      10



Maybe the New Infantry Should have following spec:

                10(1-2)      8         8(1-2)     4      10 
or they could have:

                12(1-2)      0         10(1-2)    4      10



I suppose the low speed is the key to make the game balanced,

it is 4 or 5, should not be too fast.


Artillery and AA Guns have a speed of 5, and that's really slow
already. Anything slower than that might be mistaken for an immobile
unit ;-). Seriously, I don't think slower than 5 is a good idea.

I'm not sure about whether these Super Troopers should have
long-range weapons. I think I'd just prefer a stronger brother like
                 18           10        10         5      10

If you consider that none of the tanks we have has more than range
1 it doesn't really make sense on infantry.

No, I don`t have any idea where it should be.
Is that good or not ?



Well, it's not particularly good, but what we can make of it depends
on whether there are ideas for the campaign story. We'll see.
