The only problem is that some of the geniuses that buy APs use them for NIPRNET access (email, surfing p0rn, etc.) while they're in their hooch. That presents a huge problem.
According to the Army (applicable if you're in the Army), no AP is allowed on the NIPRNET unless it is running NSA-approved encryption. Bear in mind that the Army standard pretty much mirrors DoD's, so it's a pretty safe bet the the other Services are doing the same. Some of the chuckleheads I've seen just bring an AP into their office, slap it on to the network, and think they're the shit. Shithead is more like it, as they've opened a big-assed hole in the network.
As far as Halo, Quake, Doom, et al., that's fine, as long as it doesn't touch the NIPRNET. I've seen a lot of those while I'm out rogue hunting. However, you may want to check with your DOIM or Theater Frequency Manager, due to different frequency allocations in different countries.
Best of luck to you guys in the sandbox. Get home safe.
