don't have a scout company - they mix their newbies in with more
experienced soldiers. That's why their detachments are a mix of
regular & scout stands. Should I call 'em novitiates instead of
scouts?

+AC+ Better novitiates, and IMO without the Infiltration special
ability.

+AC+ I see Veterans on bikes instead of sidecars, but it's just
me... :P

Force March or change orders power. Make it cost a little more than a
basic commander and I think it'd fit right in.

+AC+ Cool!
