Only problem with Alpha legion is that small-unit tactics after taking casualties are... confusing.
The scene: Six Alpha Legionnaires are pinned down by enemy fire, sheltering behind a wrecked Rhino. One is injured and bleeding heavily. One who looks the same as the others, but is apparently the leader, calls the attention of a second.
Alpharius (leader): ALPHARIUS! TAKE ALPHARIUS AND ALPHARIUS AND MOVE ROUND TO THE LEFT! ALPHARIUS AND I WILL PROVIDE COVERING FIRE! GET MOVING!
Alpharius: But sergeant, what about Alpharius?
Alpharius (wounded): [Ach] don't worry about me Alpharius, I'll be [urk] OK.
Alpharius: But we need to call an apothecary for you! (switches comms channel) Apothecary Alpharius! We need your assistance now, co-ordinates 205N30...
Alpharius (leader): (quietly) Forget it Alpharius, there's nothing Doc Alpharius can do for Alpharius that he can't do for him after the battle.
Alpharius: But... sergeant...
Alpharius (leader): GET MOVING, SQUAD ALPHARIUS, THAT'S AN ORDER!
(after taking the enemy position)
Alpharius (leader): Alright, CAZAM. Alpharius?
Alpharius: 3 mags, no injuries
Alpharius (leader): Alpharius?
Alpharius: 4 mags, injuries will heal.
Alpharius (leader): Alpharius?
And so on... I have no idea why I wrote that, except to ask if there's any update on when this'll be starting/we can start designing characters?
