----> I still say keep it simple. Infantry are 1 , vehicles are 3. If
you must have termies at "2", make a generic rule, something like "any
infantry stand with _save_ counts as 2 slots" or something. I play WH40K
a lot also, but even I don't think it's worth a special rule just to
make termies fit 1 to a land raider. I'd change the LR's transport to a
1 first.

-------> Cool. I think some micro machines may be perfectly in scale for
use. Don't use 'em much myself, but I may think about it now
as I've been browsing through some toy sections (Christmas , ya know)
and there are a _ton_ of those things out there. Ork vehicles, anyone...
