Hey all,

I'm trying to build the GDL infantry platoons from Turning Points: Helm.  These are listed as:

GDL Infantry Company (Reinforced) (9 squads, 8 vehicles):
First Platoon (Foot): 1 ea. Flamer, MG, and SRM Squads; 3 x Weapons/Troop Carrier (Hover)
Second Platoon (Foot): 1 ea. Flamer, MG, and SRM Squads; 3 x Goblin
Special Platoon (Foot): 3 x Rifle (Anti-’Mech) Squads; 2 x Weapons/Troop Carrier (Hover)

Should I just calculate the squads in 1st and 2nd Platoons as squads and mark the record sheets as squads and not platoons? I'm trying to follow the rules in the Tech Manual but they don't seen to account for having squads w different secondary weapons in the same platoon.

Thanks as always for any and all help!

TacOps is where the squad deployment rules are.  I'd just calculate them as individual squads and use those in combat.

Glad to hear it!  That should best translate the fluff about them into the rules... :)
