thank You!
It is a great idea to give every G.I.JOE's main playset a mini roster of dedicated Joes. I have to do it too.

I probably spelled it wrong, but what I meant was the area of Africa where there is vast open areas of dry flat plains (sort of like what you would see on National Geographic orthe old Mutual of Omaha's Wild Kingdom where Cheetah's run and Lion Prides stalk water holes. I figured Cobra may have remote bases there, due to the low population/attention to their nefarious deeds).

I would use the Persuader here to for high speed transport.

I did not know that place, I searched on Google and Wikipedia.
My problem is how to assign my Joes to the various playset: I have to think about it!

Now I have the great playsets and main command vehicles, I have to "allocate" my Joes and Cobras between them: which of You can advise me?

COBRA
1) The 1986 Terror Drome;
2) The 2003 Conquest of Cobra Mountain;
3) The Castle Destro (Narnia Castle).

G.I.JOE
1) The 1985 U.S.S. Flagg;
2) The 1985 Transportable Tactical Battle Platform;
3) The 1990 General:
4) The 1988 Rolling Thunder;
5) The 1987 Mobile Command Center;
6) The 2009 Pit Mobile Headquarters;
7) The 1983 Headquarters Command Center;
8) The 1992 Headquarters;
9) The 2005 Rolling Operations Command Center;
10) The 1987 Defiant: Space Vehicle Launch Complex.

Where to assign each Joe or Cobra!?

I didn't realize that you did your own research, so I had gotten you the link:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Serengeti

As far as which base should go where - it's up to you - but I think the MCC would be good in the desert, because the color is already right for it and it would be too heavy for a snow base. I would use the 1983 HQ for the snow base maybe because that's how they used it in Marvel #24 I think. Maybe the General for European Missions (or snow, because tyhe weight is dispersed and it wouldn't sink down into the snow) and the Rolling Thunder for forest (narrow enough to drive between trees).

I have always seen the Terror Drom as a Cobra Island implacement or at least in a Tropical/Jungle area. Castle Destro has to be Scotland/Europe. Cobra Mountain - maybe Arctic like the 1979 Battlestar Galactica Ice Planet Zero episode?

It's fun to ponder these things eh?

Woops! I just realized that you meant WHICH JOES GO TO WHICH BASE, not WHICH BASE GOES TO WHICH ENVIRONMENT....

Well, my basic rule is if they have camoflauge or clothing that speaks to a certain location, that's the first way to narrow it down (obviously Repeater looks at home in the desert). Then I go into character profiles from either Sunbow and/or Marvel and/or the file cards - i.e. Flint being my Europe head of G.I. Joe so to speak. Then if there still is fuzziness after camo and background, I go for just a gut feeling of where someone would work best for my Joe-verse or character-chemistry with other pre-established "givens" for a specific location.

It can be a little tricky, because Stalker for instance works good in trhe arctic in his 1989 Tundra uniform, he works well in urban envionments with Shockwave what with his Detroit background, and of course he works well with the O-13. So, it's tough to assign him to just ONE place.

But these are fun problems to have. It's nice being "in charge" of all of them though - since, in real life WE are usually the ones with just LIMITED control over things. I guess that why we have Jo-verses....

So this is the WHICH BASE GOES TO WHICH ENVIRONMENT part (any advice is full appreciated), then I'll decide the WHICH JOES GO TO WHICH BASE part:

COBRA
1) The 1986 Terror Drome = Cobra Island, Gulf of Mexico;
2) The 2003 Conquest of Cobra Mountain = Himalayas and Cobra-La;
3) The Castle Destro (Narnia Castle) = Scotland Highlands.

G.I.JOE
1) The 1985 U.S.S. Flagg = Atlantic Ocean ops.;
2) The 1985 Transportable Tactical Battle Platform = it can be transported where needed;
3) The 1990 General = Greenland and North Pole ops.;
4) The 1988 Rolling Thunder = South America and Amazon rainforest ops.;
5) The 1987 Mobile Command Center = North Africa and Sahara desert ops.;
6) The 2009 Pit Mobile Headquarters = Russian tundra ops., joint operations with Oktober Guard;
7) The 1983 Headquarters Command Center = PIT I & II, Fort Wadsworth, Staten Island, U.S.A.;
8) The 1992 Headquarters = PIT III, in Utah desert, U.S.A.;
9) The 2005 Rolling Operations Command Center = Europe ops.;
10) The 1987 Defiant: Space Vehicle Launch Complex = under the Utah desert (PIT III).

HELP ME! Do You like it?
