Title: Most Badass GI Slave Soldier I've yet to see.
Post by: BetaSpectre on November 08, 2017, 05:10:16 am
I sent one GI on a bike to test out the new Heat Rays I got from Pink Ships on a They came from the Sea mission, and I was surprised.
Basically I had him sprint to one side of the bunker, and skip turns as he reaction fired, he used up 8 clips in total. (Full inventory sans backpack of cells, and Quick bar with rum)
After a moment of quiet I pushed towards the beach area then I camped reaction fire. One with a bow managed a shot from the entry way. But aside from swigging down some rum it was all cool. The last wasn't even a kill it was a ray shot to the otherside of a map hitting a bagpipes who ran around in a circle while on fire for a turn before dropping to be captured. The GI became a master of the heat ray after one day of using it lol.

I promoted him to a genuine Ranger + after this mission :DD, now he goes into battle with fancy CAKE! to complement his gun. (It actually helps to prevent downtime for medbay stuff)

Several with the same unit. Marsec Ops, beastmen, civilians.
If you want I can post more of his adventures, though most will be from his diary xD

A reasonable number of mission types are soloable past a certain tech level. Starts happening around back to school tech for me. Not that i do it often, it's risky and tedious. But it happens now and again that things like monster hunts and warehouse raids pop while the bulk of forces are otherwise occupied, so i send off someone in a fighter to deal with it.
