Default Re: Tactical Shooting: The Honour of Pashtunwali

A Pashtun warrior is likely to be mounted, so a horse would be part of the deal. If you've got a fixed dollar value for equipment, it'll likely blow a character's budget pretty badly. Sig gear would be an appropriate solution, or even buying the animal as an Ally. The latter option is usually for cinematic campaigns, though.
I'm currently reading a book called Buzkashi. It's about the Afghan national sport where you compete over a headless goat or calf carcass on horseback. It's written by a former member of the US diplomatic corps and has extensive background info on the Soviet invasion. I've used some elements of it in my Party of God campaign.
