Raspberries!
EDIT: I missed it in all the chatter, does Third Squad have a name and/or it's own thread somewhere?

Hrm I suppose I will go with squad 3 then. Though my school calls out for me to join squad 1. I'm not really heavy infantry material. Though I can be a nice guard for the command staff or a archer in a pinch.
That is unless the gm's think i fit better in 1

I thought you were heavy infantry? Otherwise squad 2 can just assault somewhere 2. Hmmm. Right, the line between the two is blurring. I think we should come up with some concrete duties and differences.
Who is first called upon for X task?
Who is better at Y?
Who wouldn't do Z?

It has been suggested that Aoki would be better suited to the Scout company. Now I'm conflicted as the girls pretty much cover 'shock infantry' quite well, but Aoki herself is better skilled as a scout than front line. Not that she doesn't enjoy front line work that is. Any good Lion would.  |

Now I'm conflicted as the girls pretty much cover 'shock infantry' quite well, but Aoki herself is better skilled as a scout than front line. Not that she doesn't enjoy front line work that is. Any good Lion would. As I said before, just because we are the "bushi" company that doesn't mean we cannot have scouts, shugenja, courtiers, etc. Don't feel obligated to swap just because your skillset better feels some arbitrary description. Sometimes 1st squad won't have time to talk to 2nd company and get a scout. Having someone who can scout instead in that situation would be useful, no? Also, unless you can keep your lions away or super quiet I think you'd find scouting a little difficult. Sure, lions can be stealthy but... imagine having to travel overland with them for a day or two to recon something. Lions sleep 20 hours a day usually. They also make lots of noise and only act stealthy when near their prey. Even then though, they aren't exactly the stealthiest cats going. I think you could fit in with the scout company but as you say, shock squad is probably more fitting for you. Plus having an understanding Akodo as a gunso has to be a bonus. Rather than some scout who has zero idea how to use you or even handle your lion "friends". |

Well, it all depends, my character is a Tactician and I envision his role would be very akin to assault and outmaneuver the enemy with superior tactic and hardened soldiers. I too believe the line between squad 1 and 2 is very blurred.
Couldn't we simply merge both of the companies and have two Gunso?

Merge the squads you mean? I am not opposed on principle but I don't think that's what Bob wishes. We are meant to each have our own squad. They may well both be assault squads or capable of doing the same thing but they need to be different. Somehow different. It's becoming difficult to figure out how. I think the questions I suggested to frame the differences would be useful. Any ideas?

There can be two squads of heavy if you like. You can build squads without flavors if you like. The 'We're all friends' squad. I don't mind that. How you put together your squads is up to you guys. You just have four squads. You can even abandon one squad if you want. It will still exist, but just be full of NPCs. It will kinda suck if someone takes the 4th Gunso position if you do that though.
