Well, my manifest destiny upgrade seems to be encompassed by some of the development and tech. That being said, can I just replace my mechanical adaptations with a special electronic grenade? It would be a grenade that can be lobbed/thrown, which is capable of frying electronics and circuits within a 5 meter radius of its detonation. However, when it lands near a living organism, then it gets an incapacitating shock. This shock may even cause cardiac arrest in some humans whose cardiovascular system aren't healthy. Note, it isn't an EMP grenade. It's a device that literally emits a burst of high voltage electricity.

IDK, but I finally got an idea of some of my equipment requests Brovo:
HALO – Heat and Alternate Light Optics – multi-function goggles with variable channels: Heat-source, low-light/nightvision, or protective film versus flash-bangs and welding torches.
Micro-torch – Portable torch that can be held in the palm of one's hand with a small tank that can be carried in one's backpack. Meant for quick patch jobs or for cutting through thinner metals.
Insulated Gloves – A simple pair of gloves with grips on them insulated to keep her from accidentally short-circuiting any of her equipment or setting anything off
Remote Control Car – Simple remote control vehicle amped up with an extended range, better terrain capabilities and superior speed
Toy Grab Bag – Various toys and knick-knacks Georgia carries about with her
Electronic Scraps – Various Electronic scraps that Georgia can rig in a pinch to facilitate whatever needs she might have
Wrist-Mounted UI – Bit of like a personal computer. Able to connect to and download information from other computers, tracks ally locations, communicates with Tenzin and allows her to view local maps.
Special Request –
Freddie – Floating robotic scouting eye companion to be upgraded over time. At the moment, a salvaged bit of scrap that has been rebuilt to and programmed back to be able to do basic scouting parameters, able to identify and register friendlies based upon those programmed in at the start of a mission and added in with a command... With a command, will begin a scouting patrol and begin to mark those that it encounters which will be uploaded to Georgia's UI so that she can reference them. Also comes built-in with a handy dandy panic alarm and flashlight!

Er....If I remember correctly, Brovo mentioned that special requests should be...non-combat oriented.
And it doesnt really do much combat wise. All it does is briefly flash her a current location of a target on her map. It wouldn't give her any specifics of what it is, just location and number. Not even size. So at the end of the day, i would be better off if i decided to strap a video camera to the remote control vehicle. But that's not what i want to do. : D this is something in part I plan on working in tandem with my psychic meld ability and in the future upgrading with points spent in the grunt field. In the meantime, it has no practical combat applications-- unless you're talking about utility-- at which point i have to strip off every single item i have in my inventory ever because I can think of a use for everything combat wise because I am just that ingenuitive.

GourmetItalia said I mean ... not that Chris' death was entirely his fault; Brovo ultimately froze up Jorick's character and afterwards, Melonhead's character just ate it.
No, it was completely his fault.
Jorick's character locking him up saved him and I did that to stop Jorick from getting off'd in a tactical plan that lacked any kind of coherent thinking.Modern Military Tactics Never Ever Put Infantry Blindly Forward. Ever. Ever. Sending infantry blindly forward, especially in small numbers, is tantamount to tactical suicide. Especially against enemies who have unknown capabilities but who were powerful enough to take on a mechanized battalion and utterly annihilate it with seemingly few casualties on their part.
You send drones to scout ahead. You send tanks to push the front line. You use helicopters for the aerial view. You use radar, SATCON, intel, scouting squad armed with multi-vision scopes--anything but going blindly ahead. With just a shotgun.
The mistake was made abundantly clear when he fired his shotgun at close range and it didn't kill his target. What was Jorick's rifle going to do, irritate it? Locking up and then having the passive benefit of TITK was the only reason he survived that massive tactical ineptitude. What he should have done was listen to Kadaeux and stay behind the heavily armoured mech with intense duel wield flamethrowers and provide covering fire to ensure nothing could, say, jump on his mech's knee and start tearing through the armour to the cockpit like some shadow wolves ended up doing to Zed's mech before he could even get to the battle. Instead, Melonhead took his arena training to good use--run ahead blindly and get slaughtered by the unknown enemy, and all he did was nearly take his ally out with him.
So, not to bash Melonhead or anything, but the guy has no concept of modern battlefield tactics, or spatial awareness, or basic survival traits. These things culminated to ultimately get Chris murdered.
It also didn't help that he kept doing several actions every post, which split his total alloted time up. So instead of getting to line up a shot carefully, in the same time he could have done that, he threw a grenade, dashed around a corner, and attempted to scout through the fog for the enemy, all within that time frame. (Again, though, lacking spatial awareness is the reason this happened. It's like giving an entire speech in the middle of a fight. It dumbfoundedly breaks spatial awareness and I use that to kill people off.)
Tempest said HALO – Heat and Alternate Light Optics – multi-function goggles with variable channels: Heat-source, low-light/nightvision, or protective film versus flash-bangs and welding torches.
Will be added to R&D later.
Tempest said Micro-torch – Portable torch that can be held in the palm of one's hand with a small tank that can be carried in one's backpack. Meant for quick patch jobs or for cutting through thinner metals.
Maybe. Let me think on it.
Tempest said Insulated Gloves – A simple pair of gloves with grips on them insulated to keep her from accidentally short-circuiting any of her equipment or setting anything off.
? How will insulated gloves... ? I mean they might protect you but how will they stop things from going off?
Tempest said Remote Control Car – Simple remote control vehicle amped up with an extended range, better terrain capabilities and superior speed
No. Either it's not useful or it's trying to nab the robot buddy passive from Pilots. Either way...

Brovo, you take all my fun toys away!
But ya, they were just a rushed idea of fun things at like 1 am in the morning. Some were more for everyone than just myself.. IE) HALO, Microtorch, Wristmounted UI were all things I think everyone should have. *shrugs*
Freddie will be something I plan to nab later on, you can bet your ass on it. Do hope HALO gets into R&D *thumbs up*
Dammit, still bummer about no RC car. Now what will I play with in my downtime. *goes to pout in the corner*
Scrap and toybag were going under Georgia's achievement skill she unlocked. Just figured I'd add it under her official item list.

Oh bugger. I forgot to ask where to buy some AP bullets. Is it too late?
So he's not quite finished, still need to flesh out some fluff items and his bio but for the most part my character is ready.
Name:Edward 'Ned' Lawson
Age: 27
Sex: Male.

History Type:
Australian Backpacker: Coming from the land down under with twisted, more dangerous versions of already dangerous wildlife, your character is a damned fine survivalist, and shows this with a knowledge of various creatures and wildlife a clear cut above that of the average person. They also tend to be better with last second melee weaponry than anyone else, seeing as how many of the creatures on the Australian continent are stealth predators...
(Can typically spot weaknesses in enemies before anyone else can, bonuses to melee weapons, have a slightly better chance at detecting an attempted sneak attack before it occurs.)
Born and raised in a small fortress settlement on the Australian east coast, Edward has gone most of his life knowing full well the horrors of the modern world. Raiders, mutated wildlife and mutated raiders were a fairly common problem for the small settlement. It was just large enough to hold on to what it had which made it a tempting target for the raiders looking to move up in the world, likewise they were small enough that the wildlife were not deterred easily.
By age eight, Edward knew how to drive the various buggies and transport trucks used by the settlement to free up the more able bodied for defence and labour. he also found himself caring for, along with a small number of other children, the small herd of livestock and other animals trained by the settlement. as he grew older he learned to drive the larger combat vehicles the settlement had and was given training in weapons and combat. Few people in the settlement had only a single role as their numbers were low enough that everyone needed to be able to do more than one task so as not to leave the settlement bereft of needed skills should a death occur.
Edwards role eventually became that of security, he had taken to weapons training with a vigor only a few had and he could drive any of the vehicles used by the settlement should the need arise. He also took to the animals more so than many of the population, while the day to day caring was still handled by the children for the most part Edward took a blue heeler puppy into his care and trained it to be a companion both in the field and domestically. Some in the settlement joked that Edward connected with the dog more than he did his fellow humans.
A man by the name of Bruce McFoster wandered into the settlement one day, a baby wallaby in his care. Bruce was rather quiet at the time and it seemed the only thing he truly cared about was the wallaby which he clearly did not know how to care for. Edward took him in and taught him how to keep the wallaby healthy and in the process the two became friends as Bruce opened up and told his story. After Bruce recovered some sense of self the two of them worked together to help the settlement until it became clear to Edward that Bruce was still in pain from his loss. Edward suggested the Bruce needed a change of scenery and that distance could help him where the 'normality' of life in the settlement could not. Not long after the two found themselves seabound for the the united states, Edward going as well to keep an eye on his unstable friend and to provide him with a familiar and friendly face in the times when memory overtook him.

Technical Information:
Career Path: Pilot-Grunt Multi-Class.
The pilot is someone who has specialised themselves towards vehicles in general, ranging from aircraft to mechs to jeeps and tanks, they also tend to pick up mechanical skills and have the tendency to understand foreign technologies quicker than anyone else. As a benefit, they can also pass this knowledge onto others who might better benefit from certain technologies than the pilot would.
Pilots start with a small mech and simplistic personal equipment. They replace Civilian Clothing with a Mechanical Jumpsuit that offers them all the tools they need to do small time repairs in their mech in their pouches. This jumpsuit also protects them from certain elements, such as acid, but loses its stealth enhancing qualities. They also replace the First Aid Kit with a Technical Kit--they can use this to do more extreme repairs, and to analyse foreign and outright alien technology to unlock its secrets for the squad... Or for themselves.
Pilots can equip any unlocked modifications for their mech outside of a mission, but further slots are only unlocked through missions themselves, such as in analysing enemy technology with the Technician’s Kit or bringing back scavenge for the Council to examine.

The grunt is someone who has become a grizzled war fighter, having chosen to abstain from both the more mechanised aspects of warfare and the temptation of mutations. They instead use speciality training and customised firearms to resolve the day. Often underestimated, their contribution to a battle tends to be less obvious than the other two, and don’t let the name fool you: A well trained, well equipped Grunt is just as deadly as a high ranking Listener or Pilot!
Grunts start with their Light Armour replaced with Medium Armour, still flexible but capable of stopping some damage in critical areas. They also have access to one of three starting weapons which replaces the Standard Issue Council Rifle.
Grunts start with two weapon modifications for their weapon of choice and can change out these modifications at any time when not in a mission. They also start with two pieces of Advanced Training.

Dog-Tags: A way to identify your horrible mangled corpse. Congratulations! At least you won't die forgotten mister... Uh... What was your name again?
Standard Watch: Your standard wrist watch, likely powered by gears and springs as in old clockwork, only compartmentalized to fit on the wrist.
Flash-Light: Useful in dark places. Often mounted on a shoulder or duct-taped to a weapon.
Pocket Multi-tool: Sometimes all you need is something light and quick to get the job done, so Ned carries this tool for those times when using the Technical Kit is overdoing it.
BBQ Lighter: Ned finds it rather a bit more useful than a standard cigarette lighter because of its extended reach.
Multiple Rolls of Gaffa Tape: Stick anything to anything else and good at plugging gaps in a pinch, you can never have to much gaff.
Max: Max is an Australian cattle dog of the blue heeler breed. Not that there is much call for cattle dogs in recent years what with many of the livestock having become mutated beasts that are ore than a match for a barking mongrel. Rather than herding cattle however Max has been taught since he was a puppy various skills and such that would have gone to canines in the military or police forces in years gone by, while no match for the majority of mutated life or soldiers in armour Max has none-the-less been a faithful companion and helpful friend to Ned for the past 5 or 6 years.

We appreciate the input, Brovo 8). I can't say Melonhead's character didn't have it coming, but from what you're telling us, Brovo, I get the sense that you found Melonhead's actions worse than useless. It's a damn shame because prior to Chris' death, not only did I forward multiple PMs Melonhead's way, but I emphasized pointers regarding the Shadow Zone Fog, the Wolves potentially threatening Brucey or Daniel, the mutant tower, combined arms overlapping fire, the dangers of moving alone as well as listing all the major threats that could have ripped Chris to shreads; Limey you can vouch for me on this one because I sent you messages as well, outlining what I saw could potentially benefit as well as harm Southwest Sector's existing squad. Of course, Melonhead ignored me and did the exact opposite of what I advised and eventually, his character basically ate a rumbling chainsaw 8P. I don't mean to sound like a know-it-all because I'll admit; I'm not entirely well versed in infantry-tactics, but ... I did try to give Melonhead my honest two-cents.
In the near future, I can only pray I haven't or won't execute anything comparable to Melonhead because being stupid and alone in the Shadow Zone or wastelands without buddies, backup, or sound tactical decisions would almost gaurantee me shitting my pants. In fact, the moment I noticed that Peter was dropping into Battlezone: Downtown Chicago's Southeast Sector; alone; I already almost shit my pants =_=.

Yes, you can do this. Stun Grenades! Whoooooooo~

A Soldier's Wrath
--Rampage (Rank 2): When an ally is hit, this character now gains an accuracy bonus against the opposing target both for his reaction shot and for the next post. If an ally (named NPC or PC) is incapacitated, badly injured, or slain outright, this character enters into a battle fervour that renders them immune to panic and greatly increases resistance against psychic assaults until the target which harmed their friend retreats from the field of battle or is slain.

HA! Don't worry about it. I don't expect people to be masters of military tactics, that's asking too much, but some common sense goes a long way. Like recognizing basic attributes: Mechs have a lot of armour. Infantry don't.
Yeah.
PS: This is why Snipers have sensor pods. ;)
EDIT
Check out NPC placement and updated mission rosters.
Good News: NPC's I feel were placed very well. Derek isn't listed because he can go anywhere at will anyway.
Bad News: Shadow Zone is understaffed and Retrieval has no NPC support. Fuck up once in Retrieval and you will probably die.

Well, my manifest destiny upgrade seems to be encompassed by some of the development and tech. That being said, can I just replace my mechanical adaptations with a special electronic grenade? It would be a grenade that can be lobbed/thrown, which is capable of frying electronics and circuits within a 5 meter radius of its detonation. However, when it lands near a living organism, then it gets an incapacitating shock. This shock may even cause cardiac arrest in some humans whose cardiovascular system aren't healthy. Note, it isn't an EMP grenade. It's a device that literally emits a burst of high voltage electricity.
Yes, you can do this. Stun Grenades! Whoooooooo~

Oh bugger. I forgot to ask where to buy some AP bullets. Is it too late?
It is.
@Gat: Finish the biography and I could approve this.
@Icarus: Breezy Cartridges approved and oooh, a LAS-MOD.
A Soldier's Wrath
--Rampage (Rank 2): When an ally is hit, this character now gains an accuracy bonus against the opposing target both for his reaction shot and for the next post. If an ally (named NPC or PC) is incapacitated, badly injured, or slain outright, this character enters into a battle fervour that renders them immune to panic and greatly increases resistance against psychic assaults until the target which harmed their friend retreats from the field of battle or is slain.
I can tell the X-Com Players apart from everyone else on the tech votes.
The X-Commies are rushing for nanos and power suits. Getting some nasty flashbacks are we?Voting is over now. The results are in.

GourmetItalia said I don't mean to sound like a know-it-all because I'll admit; I'm not entirely well versed in infantry-tactics, but ... I try to give Melonhead my honest two-cents. In the near future, I can only pray I haven't or won't execute anything comparable to Melonhead because being stupid and alone in the Shadow Zone or wastelands without buddies, backup, or sound tactical decisions would almost gaurantee me shitting my pants. In fact, the moment I noticed that Peter was dropping into Battlezone: Downtown Chicago's Southeast Sector; ; I already almost shit my pants =_=.

Raen Elvarasi said Well, hey, I found it funny. And Brovo, the most relative thing it would fall under is basic common sense, I believe. XD *Reminisces on all the times of blindly dashing around a corner into a Sectopod* So, yeah...Sometimes slow and steady loses the race when it comes to how fast you die.
Yeah.
