Sweeeeeeeeet. I like the promise of progression, it's pretty sadistic but I'm looking forward to putting my soldier through hell at the beginning to establish character.

Nice, looking forward to seeing your character once i get the to started.

@Roughdragon1 How long ago did humanity lose some of the outer system? Are there people alive that remember when Humanity was outside Sol, in any capacity?

@Fisticuffs Most historians agree that the Fall happened about a century ago, and since medical technology at the time was far more advanced than currently available, there are a few survivors displaced by the event. Most of them are old and bedridden however, and can barely speak. The few words gathered from them tell of a time of great prosperity, when the visions of a future many generations ago had come true.

Oh also, I'll be creating a few npcs using the cs template. If you want, y'all can help me create a few when the OOC is out.

No prob, I'd be happy to help if you need it. Just lemme know what you're looking for.

Mostly combat personnel, grunts, pilots, officers, tank commanders, stuff like that.

I'm interested as well

Cool, welcome aboard.

@Roughdragon1 Just to be clear, our characters are all grunts at the moment, correct? No specialization yet?

@Fisticuffs Yup

Still room? This seems neat.

@Sisyphus yes

Question, how tall are the Angron?
Based on the picture, they are taller than buildings.

@edboy49 Oops, didn't see that. On average, they are between 2-3 meters tall.

This actually sounds super rad and kind of conveniently plays into an idea I had for this level of sci-fi technology.

How do you feel about stuff similar to MAX suits from Planet Wars 2, or the power armour from Fallout? I was envisioning something like an exosuit that acts as kind of a platoon heavy weapons platform with different hard point attachments for various weapon configurations and the mechanical nature of the suit lets it carry ample weight, making engineering applications invaluable or breaking through hard cover like concrete. A weapon idea I was toying with is kind of like that rotory twin tubed rocket launcher from Halo, except it goes between a minigun and a scatter gun.

Obviously, like any piece of equipment, it needs to be maintained and fueled up on the regular and it would give off a similar radar or IR signature to a light utility vehicle and while it would ofger a lot of protection against small arms fire, heavy weapons would absolutely be a nightmare for it. Also in case of suit failure or emergency, it can be evacuated relatively quickly and have a carbine kept in an external panel for the driver, as well as have the option to have cargo containers attached to the attachment points so it can carry a lot of a squad's equipment on marches or supplies in general.

One advantage it would have over conventional infantry is that it can be dropped from low altitude without the need for rapel lines so it can be deployed to secure landing zones for the platoon under fire.

Regardless! I am totally going to work on something because it's been a while since I've done am original sci-fi kinda game.

@Dervish Actually, I was planning to have something like that, but a bit more flexible depending on the user's customizations. But still, the really advanced stuff would be achieved later on.

Here is a draft version of my character. Tell me if there is anything wrong.
Edited.

@Roughdragon1 Perfecto! I'm flexible, I am more than happy to work with the framework you've set out, including a sort of progression of available tech as missions go on.

Straws and spitballs conquor nations.

@edboy49 Yeah, the cs is good. Only thing is to expand a bit more on the personality and background segments.
