That's the next Kickstarter. ;)

That's what _C&C_ is for -- 2020 would be "level 1" C&C, with double-weight Metal armor, very limited weapons list, and not that many accessories; around 2025, one might see "level 2" C&C, as described in _ADQ 1/3_; then 2028 rolls around, and "CW Proper" begins.
As to what MazeMonster and FredSkin said: I forget exactly when BLUD formed. ARF has been around in some form or another (appropriately :) ) forever; it just added firepower. Not to mention every political-action group which wanted to survive the Big Spinout had to add guns to its mixture -- even EDSEL wasn't so foolish as to totally disarm. So the development of Armed Camps is going to occur naturally; it's just a question of what groups arm-up when.
