Message: <blockquote data-quote="infax" data-source="post: 1813997" data-attributes="member: 12784">Change of DirectionIn a sudden change of direction, we are preparing a Modern-Future game now.The character concepts for the upcoming game follow below:Covert Ops Specialist - Sam K. Donnovan    The Covert Ops Specialist is a master of infiltration. The military infiltrator is adept at camouflage and prowling. Such a character needs to be athletic to make use of any entry path he finds, be it climbing a high wall, swimming across a lake or jumping an electrified fence. This specialist is also knowledgeable of countermeasures of various types of security systems. An infiltrator is often used as a forward scout, but also to gather intelligence, to observe the enemy, to place mines and traps or surveillance aparatus. Cover Ops Specialists' weapons of choice are often pistols as they are easily concealable and offer very little encumbrance. Otherwise, when placed as a sniper, the Cover Ops Specialist will be armed with a long range rifle or a target designator.Field Technician - Andrew Tygers    The Field Technician is a soldier with good training in several technical subjects. Field technicians operate complex equipment used in missions, repair vehicles, weapons and other gear and usually handle communications. When an unusual piece of tech falls in the hands of a squad, the Field Technician usually has a first look at it. Field Technicians may also be employed as saboteurs, disabling communications lines, disarming traps and explosives and using communications gear for electronic warfare. As knowledgeable soldiers, Field Technicians sometimes double as Field Doctors, specially when dealing with soldiers with many cybernetic implants. Field Technicians' weapon of choice is often the Submachine gun as it carries a heavier punch than pistols but don't take as much valuable space as rifles, which is usually used to carry so many gadgets and tools - the technician's true weapons.Robot Operator - Sasha J. Sophastinov    The Robot Operator is a specialist of remote control, surveillance, communications and vehicle operation. Robots are used in the most varied of tasks: scouting, surveillance, combat, explosive disarming and exploration in hazardous environment. The same skills used to operate robots can be useful to the operations of most vehicles, be it remotely or directly at the wheel. The Robot Operator is often called to offer fire support or to create a diversion.Weapons Specialist "Light" - Rex Andurski    The Weapon Specialist is trained in a wide array of combat implements. The Light Weapons Specialist trains with everything from Machine Pistols to Assault Rifles, including fencing and thrown weapons. This kind of soldier opts for light armor offering a good mobility. They often train infiltration techniques including amphibious training and parachuting.Vehicle Operator - Bobby D'Millis    Tank driver, helicopter pilot, the Vehicle Operator is the guy behind the wheel of the jeep carrying a group of soldiers down a sheer cliff with barrage fire coming their way. The vehicle operator has extensive training in driving or piloting most relevant motorized transport. Also a fine technician, specially in the fields of mechanics. As vehicle operation is often related to stealthy approach, the driver has some understanding of the ways of using discretion and camouflage. Another common use is to lead reconnaissance drives, so the Vehicle Operator has a sharp eye and a good understanding of Sensor Systems and communications. Vehicle operators can operate remotely almost as well as they can from behind a wheel. Training is so extensive that vehicle operators often learn to operate anthropomorphic vehicles like patrol mechs.Chicago SWAT Lieutenant - Jack O'hara    The SWAT operative is trained for precise operations in a controlled environment. Unlike most police members, SWAT train with military grade rifles, precise shooting, as well as conventional investigation procedures, rading and tactics. Lieutenants have officer training, knowing how to coordinate a team, analyse intelligence and plan an action. Many SWAT teams count with one operative training as a paramedic. They have standard hand-to-hand training and offensive driving qualification. SWAT officers operate well with robot operators for scouting, covert ops to enter the place unnoticed and tacticians to coordinate operations. SWAT troopers are weapon specialists with some extra training, they usually aren't as specialized as conventional military weapon specialists but double well as any of those. Most SWAT personnel have no training at all with explosives, heavy vehicle operations and tactical weapons. They usually operate in well controlled operations and are ill suited to the chaos of an open battlefield.Tactician - Lee Kennison    This is the guy planning the assault his team is performing. The tactictian is a field commander, knowledgeable on the ways of strategy and small units tactics. He can size up a battlefield at a glance, determine enemy strategy, figure out getaway plans in a blink of the eye. tacticians need to be in contact with their commandees, so a good understanding of electronics and communication systems is paramount, often this is not enough and many tacticians are capable soldiers that slug it in the tick of the fray. Tacticians either train in close combat or long range shooting, rarely improving on middle-range combat, support fire or hit-and-run tactics. As masters of intelligence analysis, Tacticians are very dependent of accurate intelligence reports, both from superiors in the chain of command and from operatives in the field. Tacticians work well with any other type of soldier, offering insightful advice to any situation, they are usually reliant on either Covert Ops specialists, Skirmishers or robot operators to gather appropriate intelligence and on OGRE soldiers, Weapon specialists or robot operators to get plans done.OGRE Soldier - Mal Perez    OGRE Soliders operate a special combat armor called the OGRE armor. They are used as heavy infantry more mobile than tanks, jeeps or even Mech. OGRE are often used to carry heavy loads on ground platoons over hard terrain (jungles, underground, etc.). OGRE soldiers are trained in heavy weaponry that they wield on the armor's hands, unarmed combat (greatly enhanced by the armor power), standard athletics skills to benefit from the suit's mobility (climbing, jumping and running powered by the armor). Most soldiers are expected to care for their own equipment and as such OGRE operatives often understand of mechanics and electronics. Some specialist OGRE soldiers train as paramedics or communications specialists, with a higher chance of survival thanks to the suit.Skirmish Fighter - Kay Asdrunn    Specialized in Urban warfare and skirmish combats, the Skirmish fighter has a solid place in any small platoon. The Skirmish fighter has training in small arms and submachine guns, on the use and fabrication techniques of all manner of explosives, on stealh, trap setting and intelligence gathering. Skirmish fighters often operate as assassins and saboteurs, benefiting from intense stealth training to approach enemy positions and either elimiate key individuals or disable important components. They also have good training in wilderness survival, able to stay away from logistics routes and contact with the base for extended periods of time. Skirmish fighters may scout ahead for Heavy Weapon specialists or OGRE soldiers and offer support fire when battle erupts or coordinate the actions of Light Weapon specialists, Covert Ops specialists and Robot operators.Weapons Specialist "Heavy" - Sasha Zermisky    Heavy Weapons Specialists fight with some of the most fearsome armaments available. They are proficient with all kind of heavy and siege weapons as rocket launchers, machine guns, cannons and various vehicle weapons. Heavy Weapons Speciliasts also  frequently double as demolition specialists, training with all manner of explosives and know how to set or detect mine fields. Heavy Weapons Specialist are seldom discreet and can afford to wear heavy combat armor. They often have training to driving trucks or even tanks to get there gear around.</blockquote>
