Completely missed the point of shared risk. Hopeless. Absolutely hopeless. Too much Battletech crap. Even Hollywood gets it better.

Well, you can't blame me for trying. As experienced NCAF Officers (if they exist) Are very rare. and one must try to keep them alive in order for any operations to be successful.

Anyway there is one potential candidate for the new HQ vehicle, the Israeli Namer APC.

You can do as you wish. Is it reasonable?
Anything man can build, man can destroy.
Consider M992 FAASV. Big and roomy. Show us your pictures when painted.
Because of your leadership, training, manpower issues and lack of equipment, might consider small 3rd world countries as opportunities and opponents.

The Outboard Units Commander Colonel Alfonso Perez and his Political Officer Carlos Santiago will meet with the NCAF Officers at a private retreat in the Okanagan Valley to go over the planning stages of tomorrows exercise and have a nice dinner in the process.

Damn, that’s Brillant!! It is the Supreme HQ - The Thinking Room. Change colors for the NC to red and white.
That’s great, I guess it could also be used as the exterior W/C.

Consider these as options as you move the officers from protected bunker to isolated bunker.

Or you could go with AAV7 Command. So the officers can escape across river, even into the oceans.

The Training Exercise with the Outboard Islands Land forces has begun. 1a Compañía marches onto the battlefield with the Political Officer Carlos Santiago in his M4 Sherman leading the way, blasting out patriotic rhetoric from the Shermans Speakers in the back of the turret as well as a LRAD Unit with the volume turned down for this exercise on the front of his tank, this rhetoric inspired the Outboard troops behind him to move forward, and disorientate the Princess Patricas Light Infantry from taking the initiative. The "initial salvos." where a little wide from the NC troops as the noise from the lead Outboard Sherman is making concentrating fire difficult. But the Outboards put down a withering barrage of blank rounds and smoke rounds while they press forward.

(NC Sergeant): "We got to do something to fix them into position, quick grab as much Smoke Grenades as you can carry, get that TOW and get in the Grizzly. We got to Flank them."
Image
(NC Officer): "Am I seeing things or is that one Section running off towards the woods?"
Image
(NC Sergeant): "Ok Boys get ready, We got to cause enough of a ruckus to park those Outboards in their Place, for our Mortar Teams to pin them."
Image
(NC Sergeant): "Ready GO!!!"
Image
(NC Officer): "Well I don't believe it, Get those Mortar Crews to stop those Shermans."

Are these the inflatable Sherman from WW2?
Use M48 or M60 because parts availability is higher, better fire control and armor protection.

No there not the inflatable Shermans, these are the real deal The Outboard Islands uses the Later M4E8 Shermans left overs from WW2 and the Korean War. (Plus I did not paint these, these are from someone else's collection that I got last year.

(Sergeant Kale.): "Ive read a copy of the ROD Field Manual, Figured I might try to use the techniques and tactics from it, sir."
(NC Officer): "Well Kale, you may have turned the tide, Now Im gonna give you a major job to do, Im giving you a field promotion Kale, from this point on you are a Lieutenant in the Princess Patricas Light Infantry. Hopfully this will please the other imagi-nations militaries."
