combination. In large armies, you might well have three or
even more different platoon types within the
armythis is all perfectly permissible as
long as you remember that you may include
no more than one platoon per 1,000 points
in the army. For this reason, company level
forces are always worth a minimum of 2,000
points. Any army which contains two or
more platoons is considered company level,
regardless of how many platoons it actually
has, so an army of two, three, four or even
half a dozen platoons will all be considered
company level.

Company Level Assets


A company level force represents a
substantial commitment of resources by
SICON, an undertaking so large that it would
only ever be authorised for the most dire of
threats. As such, greater resources are made
available and a senior ofcer will be charged
with commanding the force. Therefore,
when using a company level force in games
of Starship Troopers, you have the option of
including a Mobile Infantry Captain in your
army.

You are still free to use a lieutenant or

Mobile Infantry Captain 0-1 per Army Special


Your army may include a single Mobile Infantry Captain, as long as the army includes at least two platoons (and is therefore
considered company level). You may only ever include a single Mobile Infantry Captain. The Captain may be a Light Armour
Captain, Power Suit Captain, Exosuit Captain or Marauder Captain as you choose, but only one may be included (not one
of each type!).

The choice of Captain available depends on the platoons in your army. You must include at least one platoon of the same type
as the desired Captain. So, for example, if you wish to take a Marauder Captain, you must also have at least one Marauder
platoon in your army.
