Marines in Cuba. |
The various officers give me leadership options as different costs. The Gunny and the Sgt serve the same purpose. Lt Ellis has some ability to resist spells, so can be included in lists where that is likely to be a problem. Chief McCracken and the sailors will come along later, when I find the right models for them.
Private O'Leary, named after a certain blogger, is a combative Irishman who likes to get down and dirty with his fists and knife (Bayonet). He's a trouble maker and a mal-content, but his only home is the Marine Corps and he is more trouble to the enemy than to his fellow Marines.
Rocky Kirkland is a crack shot. Born in the bayou, south of New Orleans, he can shoot the eye out of a turkey in a thunderstorm.
Private O'Leary must be a cousin to me then with a temper like that! I see he's not got a lot in the speed department, but he's got a lot of pluck. Just like a true Irishman!
ReplyDeleteI imagine he would fit right in on the O'Leary farmstead.
