There are at least eight episodes that I've seen over the past year, there is some good stuff that can be twisted by a PD

That's a little more detail than we put in researching Tincup, CO a few years back for T2K game, although we did drive up there.

Its actually surprisingly easy to track down the critical stuff for the area. Besides, there is always that one player you just happened to have lived or dated someone from there. Best be prepared.

I would probably organize it as a platoon, with each squad being made up of one set of PCs, the other squad being their second characters. That way, when someone can't make the game, someone else can play a fill-in from the other squad as a second character to cover any skill/role gaps.
It'll be my first game of TMP, but hardly my first post-apocalyptic game. Thanks for the help!

The size of theam really depends on what their mission is, a Recon Team would be expected to be light and mobile, so anything more than a dozen people and 2-3 vehicles would bog things down. A MARS Team, yeah, a platoon would be about right. A Science Team, not more than a dozen or so at most. Speciality Teams, Timeline takes the approach that these are larger groupings for a specific mission, like a team to assist local farmers, or secure and reactivate a nuclear power plant, or a critical installation, so their size is very dependent on the basic mission.
