Well, my group is a Teleporter and a Tough, and they do make a good 
tag-team. The T-Porter poping people is not too terribly dangerous, as it 
taked 3 extra successes to get so the TN is normally a 20. If they have a 
high enough Navigation to do this, remember that the still have to touch 
their target to "pop" someone, so give them a good HtH ability, which IIRC 
adds to the TN a la Deadlands. And if they do it too often for your liking, 
1) try talking to them or 2) smack them around with the consequences. Easy 
way to top of #1 on Delta Prime's Most Wanted? Kill lots of Primers. My 
Porter uses the Entangle trick comboed with the Teleport others to ensnare 
people in walls, a less deadly verson that I like of stickn' em in walls. He 
also uses grenades to good effect.

As for the Tough: **You Will Amost NEVER Hurt Them!!** So don't bother 
trying. Shoot them to delay them, have the Goliath toss them into the 
river/off a building or use them as a club! A clever Primer, as most leader 
types are, will know good Tough delay tactics. Once the Primers know what 
they're dealing with, have them hammer 'em with tactics. That's the DP's 
best weapon, IMHO. Tactial Alertness. They work as a team, drill as a team, 
live as a team. Most Defiants, I think, would much rather face EU or Deaders 
than a crack DP Assault or Capture team.

Do we have an Archive of the mailing list yet? If so, go check it and look 
at previous responses to this.

(Side note, hopefully in the DP book, we'll see various DP squad setup 
examples)
