Long term unit composition
The treads on Marauders and warcrimes recently has gotten me thinking. In TW2K the units while under the flag of whatever nation are not going to be inherently of that nation. the scrounging for warm bodies is going to eventually end up with units that are Commanded by the nation who's flag is flying over the cantonment and staffed by local conscripts.
The result will be something like the firquas of Oman. groups of local recruits lead by foreign officers. These groups would be operating out of cantonments and securing the local area.
When I played TW2K without Corporal Shitbird, we ended up with a fortified farmsted that manufactured simple SMGs and trained the local Militia. As we secured the area we armed the populance with glorified Sten guns and trained the locals well enough that we didn't have a marauder problem per say. Organized Military units on the other hand required some serious negotiations.
