Sure. Everyone will be on at least one smaller base mission, but Madison can have the first one.

Post should be up later today, just got to add on a last few hundred words and then edit it.
Final Edit: Pushing in for the UFO Boarding mission, as long as I get to bring a larger than normal force of red-shirts to kill of-, I mean, accompany me on this dangerous mission.
It will depend on how much meld I decide to make available, but it will likely be like when I play the game; a couple Mechs and as many gene mods as I can afford.Thanks Zombie! I'm not sure if I want newfoundland though... I still have nightmares...
I'll think about it and get back to you okay?
I Think that's up to you commander... I don't think we'll end up with a lot of people who want their limbs removed but you never know I guess.Mandatory would really ruin your PR but we'd be in a better situation against the aliens if we had a lot of MECS Punching faces in all day. I guess we'll see how desperate we get trying to defeat the aliens, should be fun!
Also I have a question, are we going to have any MEC/ Gene-Modded Redshirts or are those exclusively for us RPers?
If you mean the last part of slingshot, you got it.

I remember the train one.
I don't want to be on the train one.

Oh, you that like it and the following mission resulted in Odd having to end season two early.
...oh wait, that did happen, didn't it.

I volunteer scarlet for the tutorial mission, and the train mission.
They both kind of fit her any way.
Okey doeky.

Couple of things:
1. For gene mods/meccing I think that IS up to you, the desperation of the situation kinda determines that. It's a balance between "Should I have good soldiers with robot suits and risk them losing motivation to fight or should I give the suits/meccing to less-skilled people (the redshirts) and risk losing battles?"
2. I'd love to see Atka go on the final slingshot mission with the battleship, and Modya or her would be good for the winter-themed "Furies", though we might want to place that somewhere other than France.
3. For the love of god, I might have to have Atka go with Ammelia if she goes on the chyrssalid mission, can't have a repeat of Anna Stone...oh wait, that might happen to Atka if SHE goes. >:3

It might be helpful as well if we set up some basic rules for the google document on the doc itself for all to see, as well as a basic overview or something like the one Squee uses, though certainly not 10 pages of Info.

If there are any missions on ships (the water kind, not the space kind), Emily should be in on dat.

Okay I'm back sorry I've missed so much, short thing, Marine and Dahl I'm going to open a private conversation where we have to discuss several things, because I already pre-planned everything and now that you two are part of it, I would like us all to stick to a fit story and not go all over the place.
On other note I would like to apologize for my inactivity

Just wait until one ufo gets shot down over water. You might still be playing in a city or the middle of a forest, but it's the thought that counts, right?
Also I'm not sure if you guys have considered this yet or not; psionics. How will they be determined and will the Volunteer volunteer or be volunteered?
Also special characters (Zhang, Annette etc). Will they be npcs?

1. I think we briefly said psionics would be up to the player, but if everyone wants to be a psi that may change. xD
2. As for the Volunteer, I had advocated earlier that we might want a different ending/edit the temple ship assault or even replace it with something else entirely, so that may not be a thing. (I mean, it would bother me if my character went through the entire war only to have to sacrifice themselves with/due to a dues ex machine, aka the ethereal ship deciding it wants to be a black hole and the volunteer is the only way to stop it.)
3. Up to the GM
We were talking about who would go on the special missons. You want one?Okay I'm back sorry I've missed so much, short thing, Marine and Dahl I'm going to open a private conversation where we have to discuss several things, because I already pre-planned everything and now that you two are part of it, I would like us all to stick to a fit story and not go all over the place.
