The marksmanship points currently apply to the board game version of Ogre only, we will need to get the AO amended to apply to the computer game version so we can use it for getting our marksmanship ribbons.

This is true of the Navy version of the Marksmanship Program, but Army personnel may receive credit for any game, the only stipulation is that their unit Officer Commanding or NCOIC must ensure the game is properly categorized into one of the nine weapons. In the case of the electronic version of OGRE, this would be Plasma Carbine.

Board gaming - Zombicide, Dominion, Splendor

Console gaming - Destiny 1 & 2, Diablo 3 (I wish we could get marksmanship credit, like for completing strikes or raids in Destiny)

On PC (and PS4) there would be Dreadnought, which is great for teamwork in space combat.
Then Planetside 2 for ground combat.

Board games would be the Tabletop "Bolt Action" and "Dropzone Commander"

Marksmanship for the Army can be found in Army Directive 09-1501:

http://wiki.trmn.org/wiki/index.php/Arm ... ve_09-1501

For the Navy see Admiralty Orders 1604-02 and 1604-01.

With enough points, you can earn ribbons to wear on your TRMN uniforms, like this Navy Rifle Sharpshooter:

For those playing Wings Of Glory, Andrea Angiolino has on Kickstarter a Science Fiction expansion, Tripods & Triplanes.

https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/14 ... =discovery

I have already pledged.

Given that it's based on WoG, will it be considered valid for the Marksmanship program, or will it need to be authorised explicitly?

P.S. I wrote Science Fiction instead of Steampunk because when HG Wells wrote the book Steampunk did not exist.
