Yeah, I'm bored so I might as well. Got Saturday and Sunday pretty free so I'll probably start tomorrow. In the meantime, I'd like applications!

The generic classes I'm using are Sniper, Gunner and Heavy, using laser rifles, machine guns and auto cannons respectively. I'll also use robots when I get those and benders when I can recruit hybrids. You can request custom armament, though.

Finally, I'm not an expert, so I'll get us all horribly killed at the highest difficulty settings most probably. Still, you can vote on what difficulty setting you want.

So please, post!

I'll be a heavy, any difficulty you like.  Highish strength, preference for HE rounds, with one or two spare HE and IN and a non-explosive clip too.  Don't need much else, besides maybe a couple stun grenades.

There's very little more fun than full-auto HE while slowly walking down a corridor.

:D

A lot of X-Com threads popping up. I even started to play the game a few weeks ago : ;D I would like to be a sniper. Any difficulty would be cool with me.

What about gunning down the malls security force with massed machine guns?

Never played Apocalypse, so this should be interesting to watch. I guess I'll take a gunner.

Just to clarify, is this turn-based or realtime?  Because realtime is way cooler and more fun.  Just sayin'.

(and it's fun to remove a headcrab from your squadmate with a high explosive autocannon round...really works!  except that headcrabs are like, instant death in turnbased.  in realtime, it's just the runners you have to worry about.)

I was contemplating making this LP/Thread myself.  Thank god somebody else is doing it.  These games were fucking made for forum participation.

Heavy Weaponize me Boksi.  In Apocalypse, the HE/Autocannon really is the best weapon until you get Disrupters and B-Toxin.

Also, blow up buildings.  You know you want to.
