It's alright, Miyuki's here for her squadmate.

Tho it's good to give Charlie senior members too.

Aww, I got a pity vote. Thank you, whoever you are.

Vasily deserves it though. He pretty much saved multiple lives.

We need another Sergeant anyways, since Setadewa is down for a few counts. At least I won't be the only Squaddie.
I don't know what I'm s'posed to do.

Posted for Sunday. Testing a new weapon in the gun range as designed by Herrman (or at least he provided a rough sketch of a cool gun). Works like a portable TOW missile. Not as explosive as the rocket launcher but more than enough for armored targets.

I mean, A gyrojet inverse-raufoss round would've been cheaper, and taken less time. But okay.

You need a cool factor though. Plus I don't think each individual rocket will be that expensive outside of R&D.

Armor research should be ready by Mission 04: Skyline.

Rule of Cool is discarded when it's a technological step back. Instead of C4, use a standard comp explosive, so the wire isn't needed and longer range is allowed (and stuff won't get in the way). When you can choose between no obstructions and possible obstruction. You choose the latter.

But seriously C4? I wasn't kidding when I said that standard comp explosive is enough, at least there'd be a body. a 20mm warhead filled with C4 will turn anything into irreparable chum.

Doesn't have to be a lot of C4. Truth be told you know more about this than I do so I will admit defeat in this regards. Maybe you could bring up the complaints to Sunday who maybe went a little too far in blowing things up and go from there to a different design?

Sure, thanks.

And for the next mission, if Alpha is deployed, I will change my sidearm to MACHINE PISTOL.

I realised I used the FN Five-seveN by accident against mister Seeker. Anyway the weapon's gone. Guess Milky has to use the standard weapon unless XCOM could requisition a replacement for her :lol:

It's what Wolfram is suggesting. Upscale the prototype to 40mm for AT role.

I didn't actually specify the rocket's size and explosive capability in my post. Skipped my mind. The rocket is most definitely smaller than that of the AT4 but haven't gotten an exact estimate down yet. Could work.


Also, if anyone wants to create some NPC's to fill out needed roles then feel free. We could always use some RIFLEMEN.

I'm sure Akiyama would be within earshot for that.

Are we expecting a Sectopod to enter the base?

Also, the Skyline Mission 04 eerily similar with Zhang's last mission where we take on...a battleship earlier.

Sure, let me make some RIFLEMEN.


Name: Jennifer Harden
Nickname: Jen
Age: 29
Sex: Female
Nationality: Canadian

Rank: Corporal
Class: Riflewoman/Riflemen
Weapon: Assault Rifle, Machine Pistol
Gear: Nano-fibre vest, Reaper Rounds

Info:
Relatively naive and idealist, Jennifer used to be part of Canadian Army and served two tours to Afghanistan before being assigned to the reserve unit. Generally reserved and quiet, she never really taking the role into the front-line with much focus, preferring to stay behind despite being a riflemen.

Name: Joko Handoko
Nickname: Jack
Age: 37
Sex: Male
Nationality: Indonesian

Rank: Corporal
Class: Riflemen
Weapon: Assault Rifle, Handgun
Gear: S.C.O.P.E, Combat Stim

Info:
Aggressive, reckless, and all-around jack of all trades, Joko was formerly a member of Special Detachment 88, an Indonesian counter-terrorism force, and was involved in the 2002 Bali Bombing, being one of the youngest at the time. In his belt he had several experiences on counter-terrorism within Indonesia and countless operations. Beyond the aggressiveness and the recklessness, he used to be in the front line all the time and rejected even the offer of behind the front even as he got older.

I doubt the barracks are Co-ed. So any female character would be open most likely.

Pavlova would probably need to do a medical exam once she checks in as well.

I think Pavlova is going for a character already involved with XCOM but having been away on minor field work, so there wouldn't be a need to check in with the doctors, though in an effort to give Chakwas some screen time we can assume that Pavlova returned from an area where a screening may be needed to detect infectious diseases.

Name: Jonathan Han
Nickname: Cell
Age: 28
Sex: Male
Nationality: Singaporean

Rank: Corporal
Class: Riflemen
Weapon: Assault Rifle, Sawed-Off Shotgun
Gear: Nano-Fibre Vest, Respirator.

Info:
Son of a soldier who participated in securing SQ Flight 117 and former regular of the Army Developmental Force after he failed to get into the Special Operations Force, Jonathan was recruited into XCOM for his speciality in medium to close range combat. Serving two tours in Afghanistan as a member of humanitarian support marked his experience in combat when his unit fought off a band of insurgents attacking a medical centre near a village. Not afraid to give advice when needed nor put his life on the line to pull a teammate out of danger, his main worth comes in being a versatile user of almost any type of weapons from small arms to shoulder-mounted launchers.
