Personally I'd say that no engineer is particularly specced towards damage. I always used them for cover destruction more than actually killing stuff.

If that's what it comes down to, I'd have no problem with him being a demoman. Sometimes you just have to make a door where there is no door.

With Sapper and Heat Warheads they're actually really good against mech units. I use them a ton, especially against seekers and drones, but they work well against Mechtoids and they're little helpers, too, if you use the AP grenades.

But, yes, cover destruction is a common use for them.

@Kaos: I have one Australian girl in the roster. Want to just snag her or wait to see what she classes into first?

Yep, that sounds good.  Altho, change the nickname to "Miss. Smith"

Hohoho! We've got a lot of ladies on the squad.

Since we lack a male German, I'll just gender flop Birdvig into an Edith Krauss. I'll take one of those PFCs, the one who has High accuracy.

Didn't have a Belgian. You can have the Norwegian if you want an Assault right now. Or you can wait until we have some more soldiers level up.

@Birdvig: You can have her, but we do actually have a male German on the list.

In general for people, if you see a soldier you want on the list, claim it. If you have a preferred class you want, you can wait until we have a suitable soldier level up and claim them then.

WUT. Male Germans do exist!

But I'll stick with Edith for this round. Edith Krauss reporting for duty.

((Although if you do want to name the other Birdvig, that would be rather entertain to me. DOUBLE THE GERMAN. DOUBLE THE FUN.))
