Speaking of whom, be checking the thread because i pretty much gave him the greenlight to post his awesome character. (Replaces the placeholder so you won't get an alert)
X-COM/XSDF RP THINK TANK (part3)
- Thread starter DarkGemini24601
- Start date
Although I am an hour late, I did make a promise that I would get Silent Tides content done...well, I did and the three parts are up and waiting for your review. This was a...long time in the making so I hope you enjoy.

It's not stupid, and we've all been there about something or another. Try to salvage it if you can, but if you can't, you don't need to toss it just because its broken. After all, it's the memory attached to it that made it more than just "a stick," and they can't break your memory.

Awesome. Course, around the time I saw the setting, I had a feeling the time of the MECs may have past. It's sad but understandable if that's the case.

Oh? I could do that already? I thought I'd need to run it by zombie first. I might do that anyway but maybe later on. Right now he might need some time without me bugging him.

I actually completely understand your emotions because I have a stick that some of the people at my dad's army base carved for me when my family were leaving because I was the only kid there. I can't imagine losing that stick and that part of my childhood so I hope those people at work get what they deserve if they did it on purpose.

Nope, we still use MEC Troopers. Did you see Kelio Sparks at the top of the second page? You'll be interacting with him a little and Addington plenty (god help you with the that arrogant...)Awesome.

I am FINALLY back in the U.S., and in about eight hours I will be home. And my dogs will be there to greet me.
This but older.
This but with the brown-black on only one eye.

Geordi Laforge as your pilots brother. Oh you bastard. XD
your medic and pilot are amazing and I especially look forward to working with the latter. Though... You've seen Addington's bio, so fun times.

Alright, evaluation complete.
ZombieSplitter53, DarkGemini24601, MarineAvenger, and Black0ut are done with their introductions.
@Adrammalech Could I have an update on your progress?
@Frostlich1228 The same thing. Remember that you only need to introduce James and Camilla since your other characters come in later.
@BMPixy Since your five bios are conplete I'll ask you as well how your intros are coming.
@Taxor_the_First @Zain Shah The same question as the above three.
As for @PrismaCube I know you aren't done since you haven't completed your Alex bio yet. Same for @Euan and @Dahlexpert . Gotta pick up the pace a little.
@Mangrale After your expediency with the bio I am pretty confident your intro will be done in time.
@Alzdude28 Since you may not know this, you need to write a 'week -1 post'. It is basically a character introduction detailing what your character was doing prior to Jan 14th of 2044. Since he joined on the first you can show him finishing up training and, or just, arriving in the Einherjar.
Five days remain until the deadline. Use that time wisely, those that have not finished their introS. Don't let the extra 3 days of pushback be your safety cushion, thise are there in the emergency situation of 3+ people not being ready.

... I've been playing too much BOIR.
@Alzdude28 You know, I probably should have mentioned to you exactly how the Drakes work so I will PM you some things you need to change. Sorry for not clarifying things with you sooner.

And the XSDF fighters are set up now. ill write a more detailed analysis for the lore thread, but for Pixy Zmby and Mangrale:
Fighter Craft
Stingray - A flatter model of the 2018 XCOM interceptor, the Stingray is a fighter with light armor and shields designed as multi role, but it is fairly weak.
Seraph - A lightly armored but strongly shieded anti destroyer and capital ship fighter; it is speedy and stings like a bee.
Shifter - An anti fighter/ground attack fraft that has medium armor but weak shields, and lies in wait like an assassin with a cloaking device.
Firestorm - An air superiority fighter that is best against other fighters or capital ships. Medium armor and good shielding, but1v1 it loses out to quality destroyers.
Destroyer Craft
Novahawk - A heavily armored spacecraft designed to pummel fighters and other destroyers. Good shielding, but not fast enough to be safe from capital ships.
Dropships
Peddler - 6 man
Vanguard - 8 man
Skyranger Mark II - 12 man
Ground Attack (can be bombers or gunships based on loadout)
Screamer 2 - light attack craft
Tumbril 4 - medium attack craft
Note that this is not all the XSDF has, just what is in the Einherjar's hangars. We have a few scout craft as well.

Sorry I was busy with school up until yesterday where I had my graduation party, like I mentioned several times before. However from today on until I have to start going to work next month I will be able to work 24/7 on RP so expect to see alex bio by today or early tommorow.
