Out Of Character (OOC)
Okay guys, we seem to have everyone. Unfortunately Alexandr's player has had something come up and will come in later so I'll be NPCing him for now (I have this nifty function that let's me post using a player's handle but I rarely use it unless they're NPC'd and it's urgent).
I hope everyone's read the variant backstory. It's vague enough that any unit can be in it so don't worry about violating canon in your personal story.
We have 15 players, enough for roughly two sections/squads. Now, there's enormous variation in how these are set up and no doubt the war would create new variants so you can don't have to follow strict rules on your squad make up. Stax has requested the position of squad gunner already but I'm leaving allocation up to you guys, however it's considered normal that senior NCOs and officers do not service heavy weapons. Remember that your LMG and your HMG do double duty, they are also your vehicle weapons so when on vehicles they may have different operators.
I do very detailed equipment sheets but you don't have to interact with them too much, just use them as you wish.
So, now I leave a lot of the organising up to you. in this section your are still players, the ranks don't mean all that much so everyone has an equal say.
