CazadorVault RED Engineer
First time out of the vault
Hello, I would like to request the following mod for Fallout Tactics, if such a mod doesn't already exist (which it probably doesn't). XS
I would like the option of using TF2 characters in the character creation screen and having them in the Recruitment pool at the HQ at the start of the game. Particularly the Red and Blue Engineer and the Red And Blue Soldier, as they both are native to the section of the US that the game takes place in (The Engineer is from TX and the Soldier is from an unspecified location in the Midwestern US).
Now, for the character creation screen, I have no idea what the skills and stats should be for a lvl 1 soldier or engi (although I'm sure the engi would have a high science score and intel, even then, it could still be edited), but I'm sure the soldier would start w/ a shotgun and rocket launcher in it's inventory (as that's his starting gear in tf2) and the engi would get a shotgun and pistol (as they are his starting gear in tf2). I would leave it up to the modder if the engi could build turrets or not, but if he was just a generic Mr.fixit that can fix items in the field and/or make things at a bench, I would be happy w/ that.
For the character photos, it'd be nice to use the regular engi and soldier photos for the characters photos in the lower screen, problem is the character creator says HAIR color and not helmet color in the character creator. However, I don't think this would necessarily be an issue as there are unlocks for a bald/short hair engi and an elvis hair engi that could be used in his place and a buzz cut soldier that could be used in place of the helmeted soldier.
Also, it'd be nice if some of the sounds of the engi and soldier lines and weapons could somehow be put into the game and would be used by thier characters when they attack/interact w/ things in the environment.
Last, but not least, it would be awesome if in Campaign mode, that after the first mission, that in addition to the default officers in the barracks, if you could hire a red engineer, a blue engineer, a red soldier and a blue soldier to serve as members of your squad. Being a soldier or engi leading a team w/ other engis and soldiers in it would be the epitome of awesome as you fight to reclaim the western half of the U.S. from cruelty and barbarsim!
I hope someone will take up this challenge. If need be, I can "donate" some cash if that is needed as an incentive. If interested, post here or pm me.
