Keep in mind, to stay true to the cartoon, there should only be about 1 in 200 shots that actually hit.

Also, you should be able to eject from helicopters.

Seriously, though, I'm liking this.

Heh, not the comic books eh?

Pathetic Earthlings. Hurling your bodies out into the void - without the slightest inkling of who or what is out here. If you had known anything about the true nature of the universe - anything at all - you would have hidden from it in terror.

Don't forget that you'll be firing laser rounds that still eject brass...and that the only combatants that die are robots...

Ok, here's my suggested set list, it takes the figures from 1982-1985, 15 Joes had to be dropped:

There weren't many Cobra figures to work with from 82-84. The rarities are pretty off, but we can work on this together...

1. Ace - R
2. Airtight - R
3. Barbecue - R
4. Breaker - R
5. Clutch - R
6. Cover Girl - R
7. Deep Six - R
8. Doc - R
9. Duke - R
10. Dusty - R
11. Flash - R
12. Flint - R
13. Frostbite - R
14. Grunt - R
15. Gung-Ho - R
16. Hawk - R
17. Junk Yard (medium dog) - C
18. Lady Jaye - R
19. Mutt - R
20. Quick Kick - R
21. Recondo - R
22. Rip Cord - R
23. Road Block - R
24. Rock N Roll - R
25. Scarlett - R
26. Shipwreck - R
27. Short-Fuze - R
28. Snake Eyes - R
29. Snake Eyes 85 - R
30. Spirit - R
31. Stalker - R
32. Thunder - R
33. Torpedo - R
34. Wild Bill - R
35. Baroness - R
36. Cobra Soldier - C
37. Cobra Commander - R
38. Cobra Commander, Hooded - R
39. Cobra Officer - U
40. Copperhead - R
41. Crimson Guard - C
42. Destro - R
43. Eel - C
44. Firefly - R
45. HISS Driver - U
46. Lamprey - U
47. Major Bludd - R
48. Scrap-Iron - R
49. Snow Serpent - C
50. Stinger Driver - U
51. Storm Shadow - R
52. Tele-Viper - U
53. Tomax - R
54. Viper Pilot - U
55. Wild Weasel - U
56. Xamot - R
57. Buzzer - R
58. Ripper - R
59. Torch - R
60. Zartan - R

These were the Joe's that were dropped. I felt that there was some duplication, or the mechanics of their character might be difficult to pull off.

61. Airborne
62. Alpine
63. Bazooka
64. Blowtorch
65. Crankcase
66. Cutter
67. Footloose
68. Grand Slam
69. Heavy Metal
70. Keel-Haul
71. Snow Job
72. Steeler
73. Tollbooth
74. Tripwire
75. Zap

True! We can just double up on some of the Cobra Soldiers, like they did for SWMs Storm Troopers, and I think we're golden...

Are we going with a compentant Cobra Commander or an Incopentent one? Right now I'm envisioning him as giving Cobra Troopers Improved Sycronized fire, and he limits your actions to one per turn?

Sounds good to me. There's plenty to work with, we don't really need to make stuff up. Ok, if everyone is "ok" with the set list I've provided I can build the page and we can start our negotiations on the stats...

We shooting for 100pt games or 200pt games?
