    That and the Fortress should be fun for me to combine:

    Blow enemy shit up point blank, or face tank your own squad's rockets/grenades.

    Want to know the scariest part about Psi Ops? They are not limited to a certain number of abilities... they literally could take everything... having said that Null Lance is by far my favorite ability they have.... 8-12 damage that ignores armor completely and can hit multiple enemies through walls and more

    EDIT again:

    Meant to also add my name down, personally I would prefer Specialist, cause I like the little drone, he's kinda cute.

    EDIT again: That fortress ability is kinda good, but you can get most of it's effects with a piece of equipment (one of the nano-weave vests)

    I wonder if all the equipment will show up or not. I guess MECs (in some form. maybe not the giant powered armor things) will show up through DLC in the summer.

    Three DLCs have been already announced as part of XCOM: Reinforcement Pack31:

    • Anarchy's Children - more content to customize soldiers as guerrilla fighters (coming on Spring 2016)
    • Alien Hunters - new mission, customization, armor, weapons to play as an elite unit tracking high profile aliens (Spring 2016)
    • Shen's Legacy - new soldier class, with the additional weapons, etc., as well as an extra mission (Summer 2016)
    shen's legacy is the cybernetics i think.

    Maybe I should go Psi. You'll be carrying explosives, right Fless? Wait, you're Flessar. Of course you're carrying explosives.

    I don't know XCom that well but I'm pretty sure "British Prime Minister" is not a class option.

    Although the devs did say in one of their interviews that MECs probably wouldn't be seen. It was mentioned as a reflection that humanity was fighting a guerilla war, and didn't have access to all the bells and whistles.

    So the Advent coalition is comprised of a number of alien races working together, right? I imagine that not all of them joined through good will and friendship. I'd love to see a turncoat alien faction that joins the cause.

    I am down for this. Could you stream it so we can sit in and watch? If we are on, maybe even get to have a little say on where i soldiers move to? That would be really cool.

    I'm going to wait on picking a class until I see the different ones, but I always liked Specialists and Assault soldiers (although the latter tends to die a lot if you fuck up).

    I too agree that in Flessar's playthrough he should not act how he wants. Instead he must let the namesakes of his proxy soldiers play armchair general for him.

    Additionally, I move that Flessar cannot continue his gameplay unless 80% of the aforementioned proxies are available to give input and/or watch a mandatory stream.

    I volunteer to put together a schedule availability calendar so that assure that Flessar can know exactly when his council (hereafter known as High Command) will allow him to play.

    This will make it a very accurate depiction of how high profile military operations are carried out.
