Actually, the weight issue is one thing that drives me insane in RPGs. Experience has shown me that there is no way an infantryman is likely to carry under their listed Load stat under most circumstances. Even dropping a pack is likely to leave many characters, providing they're carrying everything they should be, at something like 30 kgs of gear. An average character of say STR 5 and CON 5 has a Load of 30 kgs so it seems unreasonable for most players to complain about being overloaded - everyone is supposed to pull their weight in the military (literally in this case).
