Establishing a Platoon
 

To begin, your platoon needs to be established. You, as platoon commander, have been given the equivalent of 1000 credits to spend. The following table outlines the different classes of personnel and equipment you can use.

Rank/TypeMaximum AllowedCostDescription
Lieutenant1150The platoon lieutenant is the platoon commanders voice in the field.
Master Sergeant1/8 platoon size *120Master Sergeants are required to pilot the AT-PT Mk.II. Although the Platoon Commander may purchase as many AT-PT's as he or she likes, they are only permitted to deploy as many Master Sergeants as deemed by the above chart. The small number represents the platoon size that would require the support of one or more AT-PT's. This provides for situations where AT-PT's are required with alternative weapon set-ups.
AT-PT (Mk.II)~450
Sergeant1/5 platoon size *851 Sergeant and 1 Corporal in conjunction are required to operate heavy weaponry, such as the Heavy Bolter, Missile Launcher or Anti-Armour Las- / Ion-Cannon. The Sergeant fires the weapon and Corporal assists with reloading.
