XCOM: United Front (OOC / DEAD)

[Deramen]

When are we getting the IC up? When there's two squads, or?

At least two squads. That said, NPC's can always be thrown in if things take too long.

Name: Arron SextonDO NOT REMOVE: 4242564

ACCEPTED but I ask that he have done something to draw the eyes of the Council. Doesn't have to be anything major but enough to make him stand out a bit. Also, Medics get a SMG for defense.

Alright I guess I'll add something like preforming a miracle surgery or whatever.

Never know when we'd need a mechanic. ACCEPTED.

Alriiiggght, sweet. Can't wait for this to start!

Alriiiggght, sweet. Can't wait for this to start!

We need mechanic when one of our Raven dealt with damages in the process of downing UFO.

Yeah, I just hope he knows how to fix one of those. Probably have him learn about Ravens at the start or something.

Shouldn't when he entered XCOM, he received training from XCOM?

Yeah, that makes sense, they probably would have trained him for Ravens and Skyrangers since he seems to be the only field mechanic so far.

Speaking of Skyrangers, is our Skyranger is unarmed like in the XCOM? Or not?

Speaking of Skyrangers, is our Skyranger is unarmed like in the XCOM? Or not?

It will likely be unarmed (except for maybe a optional mounted machine gun in the cargo bay) as external weapons would create unnecessary drag, and since this is a supersonic VTOL it would need as much speed as it could get.

[Parcia]

BIA mate, I don't mean to be that guy, but you missed my OC when you updated the roster.

[SaintB]

Made a little change to my app to account for the change in rank from Corporal to Sergeant.

I'm totally going to have Barbs volunteer for MEC because I want to RP how after such a massive change what would happen to a person's humanity.

[Altito Asmoro]

How long the research will be?

Was it the original XCOM back in the day where this was an option? I might be wrong

[Beiarusia]

Will update roster tonight. An research will vary depending on how cool it is, but mostly won't be too long.

Few questions. Can my character have a shotgun as a backup weapon. Two, can he have a grappling hook. I know it says used by Recon but it doesn't say exclusively used by Recon.

Take my answers with a grain of salt, but If your a sniper you probably shouldn't have a shotgun and grappling hook.

Also carrying two big heavy weapons would probably make movement rough, so to speak.

I'll sorta agree with you on the weight but the hook I don't know about that. It's used to reach vantage points that would be better for sniping.

I mean you could just as easily take a rope or climb up to the vantage point but I see your point.

Previous Assignment: 4 years USMC, 2 Years Chicago PD SWAT

Skills: Other then the training given to her both by the Marine Core and the CPD, she has taken a liking towards hand to hand combat (going back to her youth) and physical fitness, if not on a mission or sleeping, she is often training and sparring.
Weakness:

Hard headed.
Despite, being a trained soldier, she is stubborn to a fault, if her stubbornness directly effect those around her, she will at least try to be more reasonable.

Size.
Even with being at peak condition, she it still relatively small person, and she knows is and hates it, but she makes due with what she has.

Direct combat.
While having received basic weapons training at Marine Basic, she much prefers long distance combat and thus, it less skilled at med to close range combat.

Personality: She predominantly tough and tomboyish, and can be a hell raiser at times. When in the field, her attitude calms down as she focuses that in to her work. That being said, the corp hammered in to her its traditions and behaviors and as such, will fallow orders mission goals. She is an intelligent person and likes to hide it in most cases. She is also a bisexual, but is still in the closet about it.

Bio: Born and raised for the first 4 years of her life in Havana Cuba in to poverty, she was picked on and often teased by the other children due to her situation and small size. Her mother, a "Women of the hour" Prostitute Would eventually give her up to a foreign adoption agency in order to give her a better life then one in the slums of Cuba. Being taken to Florida at age 6, she was taken in by a nice family with two older sons. Despite this, as she grew up she still tended to be tough and a tomboy, often protecting her older siblings. When she hit her teen years, she became less immature, yet still rowdy and often got in to fights. She gained a reputation in high school as a bitch of such a high caliber, none would dare to trifle with her. While this did take care of the bullies, it also made people afraid for her and made it hard for her to make friends.

Even as a delinquent in the Florida education system (it self the worst in the US...OOC: I'm not even making this up, as a student in Florida, it is really bad here) she managed to keep her grade up and graduated 3rd of her class on all but English. She would first try for the police force, but was rejected and after a night of heavy drinking, woke up to find her self in jail with one hell of a hang over and newly enlisted in the United States Marine Corps. She decided it would be good for her, and joined. It would upset her adopted parents, but they understood, knowing that her personality and nature was perfect for the Marines.

She shipped of to Basic training in 2007 and passed with flying colors, abet with notes on her records on problems with fallowing orders. She would be given the chance to go to Marine Sniper school after scoring high on Marksmanship tests, often beating her instructors. Being trained on the M40A1, she found it to be small and often disliked the rifle's ergonomics. During her training, she was offered and accepted training from the UK Royal Marines sniper school and fell in love with the Arctic Ware series of rifles, specifically the Arctic Warefare Magnum in .338 Lupa.

She would serve a single tour of Afghanistan were she would hone her skills along with her spotter. Towards the end of the tour, she was involved in an ambush by insurgents and her spotter was killed and her self badly wounded. Being extracted by USAF PJ (Para-rescue Jumpers) while bleeding and still under enemy fire. She would spend a year at Walter Reed, recovering both physically and mentally. She was diagnosed with mild PTSD and honorably discharged. Finding her skills useless in most jobs and in need of money, she returned home to Florida and was given the idea of joining the Police. Passing academy with flying colors, the question of her mental health was brought up when she applied to join the SWAT team and after the rigors of mental testing, she was passed.

However, JSO would have no need for a trained military sniper and instead was transferred to the Chicago PD SWAT team as a over watch sniper. Most of the time, she was given a M-14 and while it was a good rifle, she found her self longing to use the AWP (Arctic War fare Police). She saved her own paychecks and bought the rifle it self, as well as the attachments. Using it with joy, she was successful on the missions she was sent on and gained a reputation in Law enforcement for being a dead shot. The CIA would approach her and try to recruit her 3 times for X-COM before she agreed and only did so one two conditions: 1: She be given a AWM (Arctic Warfare Magnum) and 2: A file on her birth mother.

All the while, she has fostered a impressive skill in hand to hand combat, this combined with her physical fitness she has kept and her attitude, she probably is the person who would try to fist fight a *cough* Muton *cough* and win, provided she got the first punch. Has a love of Classic rock, and carries her USMC K-bar on her at all times.

Side Note: She does wear, as well as her American Flag patch, the USMC Sig Rune Patch on her shoulder and acknowledges it use by the SS, but frankly "Doesn't give a shit".
RP Example:One word: Dragon.

All yours Bia. And your right, the AX338 is basically the AWM, but the AWM looks so much sexier then the AX388. So, same rifle, same rounds, different furniture and paint job.

He skipped my app on the roster by accident. My point stands.
