Recreation Vehicles and Embedded Journlaists in T2k

[natehale1971]

As the subject header says...

I have been trying to get a T2k game going, and had someone had asked about the posiblity of their character having an off-road Recreation Vehicle. Now this is pretty interesting since the character they are thinking of playing is an embedded journalist... and the RV would have the equipment for them to do their job (sat upload equipment, battery rechargers, ect) that the three person embedded journalist team would be using.

Now I like the idea, because it would have luxuries in it that the soldiers (even the officers) wouldn't have... and that there would of course be some resentment towards them. Especially since the NPC they are wanting to have as the Producer of the embed team is suppose to be an elitist snob who use to be a 'face' person until they lost their on screen credibility (still don't know what they are suppose to do, the person buidling the character hasn't decided just what kind of activity the producer got caught doing, that didn't destory their crediblity for being able to find good news stories... just the fact that people didn't find them creidble to do the reporting themselves).

Some of the ideas for the modifications for the RV that they were asking about was solar pannels on the roof, and off-road capabilities.

Now comes the part i'm asking everyone about... Just what kind of RV would have been good as the base for them to have used to modify to do everything that they need it to do. And a list of some more of the kinds of modifications that the news agency would need to do to the RV.

BTW... the name of the news agency is going to be the WBN (Westinghouse Broacasting Network) News Channel. The Embedded jouranlist team will be composed of a Field Producer (the disgraced field correspondent), Field Correspondent and Cameraman.

Now the player of the Correspondent wanted to have the Cameraman also be there to provide security, but when i told her that a cameraman isn't the best choice for security since they are focused entirely on what their camera is pointed at (a friend of mine actually was a professional cameraman for a local news programming out in Arizona for six years until he broke his knee and hip during one of the assignments they were on).

Can someone who knows, tell me how security for Embedded Jouralist Teams are orgasnized? Or are they ad-hoc and used in an as needed basis? Or are their security provided by PMC's that are employed by their news agency?

I had thought of a public affairs officer and public affairs boadcasting specialist being assigned to them as 'minders' and a couple of military policemen providing their security.

but if someone can tell me what is acutally used, i'll go with that instead.
