Commando Archive

ok. when i started reading the instruction manual for an empire divided, before bikes and mounts and all, when i saw commando, i thought immediatly (sp) of some kind of special forces kinda thing that conducted stealth missions, quick, precision strikes, and was generally pretty cool like that. However, when i became a commando, i discovered something different. we are more like heavy weapons people who lug around big guns and chuck bombs......last time i checked that was a heavy weapons trooper's job. So, anywho, my point is, i think they should split commando into two different, new classes: heavy weapons specialist, and something else. the hvy wep specialist should basicly be the commando we know and love, minus maybe the launcher pistol and unarmed IV req. (it's never used anyway, maybe some other tree instead....) the hvy wep specialist should havemediumdefences, medium/slightly below averageaccuracy and a high attack, also, crowd control should have apart in this profession.low refire rates, large explosions, large weapons, and some other generic specials, like an incinderary rocket that would pretty much be a low-grade AoE attack that lit everyone in the radius on fire (a small fire). ill leave the rest of this guy to your imaginations. The other should need the exploration scout tree, and the ranged support tree (possibly sub ranged support for carbines?). this guy would function as mentioned before. quick, precision attacks, like a real special forces person. stun gernades, eyeshots, bleeds and hi-dmg stuff, KD attacks, and an ambush-ish attack should all be presentin his arsenal. as for weapons, carbines, unique things, and maybe a rifle. some other abilities should be some kind of sneak that would be kind of like a camo kit, but less effective, others could be smoke grenades (large accuracypenalty to enemies shooting through smoke), and other such gadgets. he should have a fairly high offensive power, a medium/barley below averagedefence, and a slightly above average accuracy. crowd control would pretty much be a no-go. Anyway...tell me what you think, please dont flame. if you see unbalance or something wrong, calmly ask me to correct it, and ill either explain the misunderstanding, where you misread, or correct the mistake.
