Default Rhodesian Army infantry 1965-80

The main infantry units for the Rhodesian Army from UDI to 1980 should be:

Rhodesia Regiment (Mostly white conscript and reserve infantry).
'C' Squadron Rhodesian SAS (pretty much what it says on tin, hence no 'C' Squadron in UK SAS).
Rhodesian Light Infantry (elite Commando troops)
Rhodesian African Rifles (African soldiers with mostly white officers).
Selous Scouts (Commando/special forces).
Rhodesian Defence Regiment. (mostly Indian/Asian and mixed race troops).
BSAP (Para-military police force).

Those units are there. The thing is the game has no paracommando unit class. The SAS were that. SAS are there until 1963. RLI Fire Force and Jumbo Fire Force are there. The Light commando and Para units could be considered RLI. The Selous Scouts are there. RAR, RDF are regular infantry units. BSAPs are there. Grey's Scouts, (you forgot them. They were horse mounted sfors,) are there. PATU are there. INTAF fort units are there. Mashford's militia are not.

True enough Greys Scouts were mounted infantry, perhaps the most typical of historical Southern African units.
