Hehe, true. :D
IIRC the pod was supposed to be roughly 2x2cm or about the size of a plastic Rhino so a 10 man squad should be able to fit more or less (If you think that's crammed thanke a look at Microarmour APCs: They're absolutely tiny!)

10 men, could easily fit in that Pod, with full equipment.

Ya, no problem.  There also looks to be plenty of room for various personal amenities, a futon, as well as some regimental "support" staff as well.

Those will be covered in the special rules no doubt.

Yes, it would "Fit" 10 troops with full(fool!) kit ... but like Tas said, no leather interior ... :)  Or "support" staff, Dave ! :devil:

The Slammers had a mechanised field "support" staff if I recall correctly.
"Maintenance of Morale" is a Principle of War after all!
