Squad Leader Archive

There's currentlya thread about 'combat entertainer'. as opposed to combat medic. i sudgested that we get this skill to aid the mental woes the Sl can bolster morale.

I don't like the entertainer idea, but the mind healing is legit. I don't think many SL's care to be dancin' one's. I don't really think Admiral Piett would have broke out with Exotic Dance 2.

This would be great...but until they lower the HAM cost of the other SL abilities, we'd probably be using it mostly on ourselves.

I didn't mean that we dance for the, no of course not. But a good leader could go around and speak to his troops to bolster morale thus lowering the mental scarring of traumatic events. I just mentioned the entertainer because they came up with it in the discussion boards. But I think that's a Horrible Idea IMO.

We could tell jokes and call our self the USO.

USO is a great idea, we'd never run out of content if we kept making jokes about how horribly gimped this profession is.

They heal significantly faster (as doctors) and do not lose huge mind costs.

I imagine this something along the lines of a revival for someone in the field that has been incapped from mind attacks.

I honestly think that is asking for too much. With that ability, what would be the point of making a Dancer or Musician over this profession? Besides as a roleplayer that is.

Dancers and Entertainers could still heal mind wounds and battle fatigue. Just give the Squad Leader the ability to heal mind Damage.

The Halfhand

I'll make sure to include it if I get another report, before the Squad Leader Correspondent cycle takes place.

How many people go in to a cantina or listen to entertainers to heal their mind damage. I would say entertainers main role is healing mind Wounds and battle fatigue. I thinka squad leader morale boost would heal some mind damage, but could have a long delay and action cost.I definately dont think this wouldtake away anything fromentertainers.
