I see that it's quite unbalanced in terms of effective suppressing fire on the move.The first is more suitable for point offense against a fixed structur, or fire raids against light armor, while the 2nd team is more for covering and defence.If they get seperated, then it will be terribly off-balance...right?Originally posted by Gordonator:mine consist of 7 people. 1st LAW
............ SAR21 (Sect Com, 3SG) M203
............ 2nd LAW 1st SAW
............ 2nd SAW 2nd M203 (2IC, CPL)
