Pbartender, I've read the SC II intro PDF already. None of the listed NPCs are named, classed heroes. Let's go with a complicated concept. Can you replicate this guy:

Sarge 2.0
[SBLOCK]Name: Sarge
Class Levels: Soldier 4
Origin: Veteran Serviceman (1/session free request check, 7 extra skill points; bonus Officer feat, handgun and rifle proficiencies, +1 w/ attack checks using Suppressive Fire).
Notes: I wanted to see how close I could get with a straight 'soldier build'. I think this works in spirit. He's a team leader by example, while still allowing room for an officer to polish off the rough-edges. Sarge is an astute judge of character and can work the green machine like few others, to get what his squad needs. Getting the job done while under fire is par for the course. He never quits, and he'll, 'leave 'em standing in a puddle of their own piss' if anyone in his squad looks like they aren't giving their all.

Sorry about the delay, but others know I'm home and I had to run 'urgent' errands

.
I am so glad I can use the npc rules to do this instead. There's just no need to stat out a full character unless I'm pre-generating for PC's. I could have gone several ways with this and all without multi-classing. The Scout, Wheelman and Explorer could have worked equally well. Heck, I've made a legitimate combat officer based on the Scientist class.
I didn't see the need to take him past 4th level, 'cause at 6th he looks more like SGT. Slaughter!
Any questions about Sarge 2.0?
P.S: Anyone know how I put this in a dropdown field?
ETA: Some number crunching corrections and explanation.
