If any are in the jungle then they're criss-crossed with mangrove swamps. A significant number of urban areas are either coastal or on rivers. Really desert Ao's are the only ones I won't be able to deploy to, even if the fighting is land based.

It also means I could have an entire island controlled by my PMC, to use as a base.
 
Probably should have said this earlier, but:
The reason unarmed troop transports (like URALS) and utility helicopters (Like Chinooks) aren't listed is because it is assumed that if you have the facilities to care for its type of vehicle, you can take care of it. For numbers sake we'll say-

-For every IFV you own, you own 2 Troop/Utility transport vehicles

-For every helicopter you own, you own 1 Utility helicopter.


Also, on a different note...

Does anybody here have quick access to a simple image-editing program? We're looking for a map GM. The position comes with all the perks(Like...uh...being able to say that you're the map gm?) It's not a huge deal, but would make things easier for me.

So do I get any boats purely for transportation with mine, if I were to buy some?
 
Just as a marine assault force the type of people who could deploy in a D day landing sort of environment. You know, storming the beaches

This is my application, I don't know to much about the period or format, so any advice or any errors being pointed out are welcome.
I don't see any problems, though I'd appreciate a reformat on the equipment list, like so, with the costs for each afterward instead of what I assume is an incrementing counter like you have.

Mostly just my feeling though, so don't if you don't want to.

One question, will the jobs we are given be totally random or will people hire the "best group for the job" so to speak?
 
Any idea how much it would cost to get a few grenades, both anti infantry and anti-tank? What about Molotov's those are quite cheap and easy? Mines?

As these are not on the list, I wanted to ask how many GMC would a Sterling smg, and a Bren L4 be?

I figure I would only need Sterling smg's for all vehicle drivers, and the crews of the armored vehicles.

I'd think two GMC for the Bren, one for the Sterling.
