Yeah, I did 3 platoon types per faction for the SL era, for use on my server. I'll post some other ones as well.

Very nice, how do you arrive at the transport weight? And what kind of mode of transport do the Krypteria Motorized Infantry use?

I cheat. ;-) Transport weight is calculated by MegaMekLab. I could do it by hand but I'm horribly lazy and would probably come up with something similar anyhow.

As for transport, I designed them to be used with the Ignis (they deploy in squads of 2, allowing three squads to fit into a single tranport) or two VTOLs, such as the Vector or Strike Falcon.

Nice job.

I really like playing with the rules to build Infantry units.

Very nice TigerShark. I have some infantry of the 28th century to flesh out - would you be willing to help out??

I actually could paint/sketch with similar quality, but as it would be unofficial fan art, I didn't see the time as being well spent. So... Quick fix. :)
