Given the prevalence of advanced, portable field kitchens and the use of landships as mobile supply bases, field rations carried by individual soldiers are considered more of a temporary, supplementary measure by Terra Novan militaries. This has resulted in their quality and composition tending to vary wildly based on the producer. Aside from a disastrous attempt at Interpolar standardization during the War of the Alliance with the Ration Unit, Daily (RUD), the Leagues have largely stuck to the own idiosyncratic attempts at achieving optimal nutrition.

SWAT teams are made up of 5 soldiers each, 2 of which carry Main Weapons while 3 carry Support Weapons.

Faction: SRA

Stat Block

Primary Skills:

Awareness (Battlefield), Tactics (Southern Republic Army), Melee (Unarmed), Gunnery (Small Arms), Survival (Military Survival Training)

$$$ Secondary Skills:

Stealth (Camouflage), Pilot (Ground Vehicle), Medicine (First Aid), Melee (Knife), Awareness (Forward Observation), Athletics (Throwing), Gunnery (Heavy Weapons)

Squad Organization:

SRA Escouades are made up of 10 soldiers each. 6-8 of these carry Support Weapons, while the remaining 2-4 carry Main Weapons. Heavy Weapons Escouades also exist where 8 soldiers carry Support Weapons and only 2 carry Main Weapons. Since the War of the Alliance the SRA has increasingly embraced an alternate doctrine where all Main Weapons in an escouade are replaced by a second, complementary support weapon, creating a unit with little tactical flexibility but that excels in a singular role. 

As part of the RPG, we want to provide more support with things like premade NPCs. This is the first in a series that will see us look at the various infantry of the powers on Terra Nova. Where better to start than the good old MILICA!
