Also this is because of brainwashing and propoganda. And this is at the cost of all their wrongdoings. A perfect world if you're an obedient sheep, sure, but even then if you have something the aliens want you might become a test subject.

Said this earlier on the previous page I think, but here's a detailed analysis so far:

FTFY.

In fairness, I could see an 'atom' pike as well, though if you need to cut into something with deep armor and you don't want to get your weapon stuck or otherwise torn out of your hands... Sectopods say hi... (or just not be able to jab deep enough), the sword will be waiting.

I imagine Zero Alloys are somewhat shock absorbent, and even if they aren't some nano-fiber interior would be in most armors so that being shot with a rail-accelerated bullet doesn't kill you via concussive force. Why are swords effective? Reference this trope in Real Life. Zero Alloys...

Marine: But seriously, do trust him on this. I do have rules on punching damage, and the only way a blunt weapon would actually be effective is if you had someone much stronger than a human swinging the darn thing.

That would be called fists and/or rope, a club's more likely to bash something in.

Let's see... Overlap of sorts, if you want to say a tanky class you'd be better off saying the HP of Assaults or Heavies. This has to be a flat no if this class is to make any sense. We're fighting a guerrilla war here, and nothing they'd be wearing could be worth not being able to extract...

And as we know, the vanilla game usually gives us only enough classes to make half a squad, so I've been concepting what else we might get. Some things have to come with time though. If anyone has any suggestions for additional classes I might be interested in hearing them, no promises on...

More X-COM 2 Musing We're probably only going to start off with 1-2 characters (antagonists and essential staff not included) for the average person in XCOM2. The number will rise to three later on, and you cannnn kill off someone to get a new person in, though they won't come instantly...

Filing that post away for later then, hm. Oh well, I'm cooking up something with someone that should be an entertaining read for everyone after the mission.

Wait, their birthday is on the 4th? What?

Man, no one gets my jokes... It's Sasha/Mikhail's birthday... slash the university of the start of the Ethereal Subjucation War... Why the fuck is everyone so paranoid lately?

Hm, the story date is March 1st/2nd today. That means several things...

Weird question of the day, does anyone want to play the Chief of Maintenance aboard the Avenger? (I'd ask if anyone wants to play the pilot but this seems to imply that we won't exactly... have one. Minor XCOM2 beginning spoilers?)

Story of Defiance and Vanguard of Forseti are the canon, main, primary, whateveryouwanttocall it timeline. Our XCOM2 RP would take place in a secondary/alternate/splinter timeline. So all the characters (or versions thereof) of the characters we know and love from season 1 and 2 fought their...

You're not familiar with it obviously, but the reason this timeline exists goes back to an event in Story of Defiance. Originally, the aliens bombarded our base and wiped most of us out, but some survived and managed to send a message back in time to change the future and allow us to win the...

Which means Eva might have died in the middle east unless in this timeline she didn't have her heart stopped there. But simply put EXALT wouldn't be able to last any more than XCOM did, the aliens would have taken them down too. At most they'd have been one of the minor resistance groups, but I...

Oh, yeah. That is an important point. By 2018 there were no more Exalts. Their influence on history is still there, but I didn't want to mess with EXALT in this timeline. ADVENT would have absorbed them or done the same thing to EXALT that they did to XCOM. (All and all it would have been an...

If you have the time when that comes around, of course. :p I want to be able to count on anyone that joins the third (and possibly final since by that point I'll be getting closer to senior year/college) roleplay to be able to be active.
