Re: OOB 066 Sweden [WIP]
Been doing some work on my own OOB66.
I'd like some suggestions on a small problem I have:
Back in the day (early 1960s) there was a local defence battalion organisation called Cykelskyttebataljon 61 ("Bicyle Rifle Bn 61").
The rifle company HQ section of this organisation included a 'sharpshooter patrol' that doubled as a 'observation patrol'. Normally Forward Observers in Sweden are termed E-ledare, so I'm guessing this sharpshooter/observation patrol was more of a recon asset.
It was 4 man strong.
I thought I would make a 4 man recon team to represent this type of unit. What would be a resonable weapon configuration/ammo loadout for such a unit be? Also how many points should such a unit cost?
I don't know exaclty what type of weapons, number of scopes etc they would have had. The troops would have been older conscripts with older kit...
