The problem with the Brad is that while it's great for a war it's not so hot for T2K, Like anything not an MBT it can be popped frontally by an RPG-7V and these are not uncommon in the T2K environment. If this is the case it's a fire support vehicle with a 25mm gun and you may as well have a LAV-25 for that because it's less thirsty and can swim.

Recently I've really gotten into 4x4 APC/IFVs, I think a game where each player had something like a LAV-150 or a BRDM would be cool because you could have a short crew meaning each player had one NPC as a driver. I really should develop this more.

That's a good point. I prefer the LAV-25 as well. One thing that the Bradley has that the LAV-25 doesn't is the twin TOW II launcher. With it, the Bradley is capable of taking out even the newest (in the T2k timelines) Soviet MBTs. IIRC, a Ukrainian Bradley destroyed a Soviet T-80 with a TOW shot.
