Steve Long Posted June 3, 2005 Report Share Posted June 3, 2005 Re: US Army Rangers There's a complete Package Deal for Rangers in Dark Champions. I'd supply a page cite but I'm away from home and don't have my book with me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
greymankle Posted June 3, 2005 Report Share Posted June 3, 2005 Re: US Army Rangers well not to take the cop-out answer but Army ranger is listed in DC as a package deal. Page 53. I would go with that personally. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CourtFool Posted August 2, 2005 Report Share Posted August 2, 2005 Halliburton How would you guys and gals build a typical US Army Ranger? I just would like to compare what I have to other people's ideas. I would contract it out to the lowest bidder. It is the government's way.

Toadmaster Posted August 4, 2005 Report Share Posted August 4, 2005 Re: US Army Rangers It depends on how you want to run your game, I have a package system that builds, so a Ranger would take Basic army training, then an MOS, then airborne training and finally ranger training, much as a real ranger would go through training. This is far more complex than most would probably like but thats why I like HERO, I can have it my way. I would post what I have but I'm not sure how to post a word table and I'm too lazy to type it all out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kirby Posted August 4, 2005 Report Share Posted August 4, 2005 Re: US Army Rangers Crud. There were package listings for military and government agents in some 4E source material, but I cannot seem to find it (at least, not in the table of contents of the books I skimmed through). If I find it tomorrow, I'll post it for you. I do recall you had to have the soldier package first, followed by the Ranger package. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Toadmaster Posted August 4, 2005 Report Share Posted August 4, 2005 Re: US Army Rangers Ok, lets see if this worked I haven't played with this in quite awhile, it was an rtf so I had to change it to word, but it looks like I haven't played with this since 2002. It doesn't have Rangers in it, I guess I didn't get to spec ops packages but you might still find it interesting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toadmaster Posted August 4, 2005 Report Share Posted August 4, 2005 Re: US Army Rangers This is what I did for rank and decorations, it is intended for a purely military campaign where the NPC's would actually know how to read anothers uniform and recognize the achievements the various bits represent. In addition to actual rank there are modifiers to represent influence, the company commander's enlisted clerk may have more influence than a lieutenant running a platoon.

Killer Shrike Posted October 21, 2005 Report Share Posted October 21, 2005 Re: US Army Rangers Toadmasters packages would work pretty well for just about any basic military set up, with some minor tweaking here and there. As a side note here is a pretty useful site detailing US Special Forces: http://www.specialoperations.com/Units/military.htm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
