Heh...


Always missed that one too.

My favourite character was one who while, yes, did have that stupid high Small Arms Skill, I moved from Combat Arms after a few terms. Basicly, I was rolling like a loon during the whole generation process. Stupidly high attributes, and really lucky rolls on rank, and war term. After the 3rd term of Special Ops, I made him a supply guy - for another 3 terms and then the War Term. Old Codger: Ran him as that Crusty Veteran Scrounger, who let all those younger guys do all the fighting while he took care of the gear. Since he had more cash than you could shake a stick at, I made a deal with the GM: I got a Ambulance Humvee made out to be his private office/hooch on wheels, stocked with about any item you could wish that wasn't combat usable. Needless to say, loaded with things like stoogies, coffee, pressed uniforms... always looked like he came right out of an advert, always with the best of anything.

Of course, those first three terms came in handy now and then as he would occasionally pull out something really weird (Like that old German Anti Tank rifle from the small arms book) and take shots that boggled the imagination.

Was a lot of fun.
