<div class="IPBDescription">City of Heroes creation guide</div> For all the NSers who are also playing City of Heroes, I'm planning on getting together a Squad Five, of themed characters. (Squad 5 is the non-themed casual group)

Going to be putting together build-guides for both the standard Marine, as well as an HA Marine.

<u><b>Standard Marine:</b></u><ul><li>Recommended Class: Natural Blaster-Assault Rifle.</li><li>Height: Please, no extremes (no 8ft or 3ft Marines)</li><li>Head: Helmets<!--c1--></div><table border='0' align='center' width='95%' cellpadding='3' cellspacing='1'><tr><td><b>CODE</b> </td></tr><tr><td id='CODE'><!--ec1-->

Columns first, then rows. So 3,5 would be the third column from the left, fifth row down.

    here's the HA I put together, I don't have a solid parts list, but I'll first check to see what you think of it.

    while you were getting the screen shots Talesin, I put the HA together, and I think it looks a lot better if all the yellow is 3,5 instead of 4,5. The one in game has a duller yellow.

    Also detail 1 on the helmet can be the vents or whatever they are on the sides of the helmet in game, there is a suitable model available.

    edit: and the gloves in mine cam out differently, I think you didn't mention blend or the proper white

    That's because I blended it to dark gray, not white. In-game, HA are wearing black gloves under the armoring, after all. <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    New screenies up, with AA, and all three types shown. <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    I may end up darkening that yellow as suggested, as it IS a bit glaring at the moment. Just could barely see it when it was darker, on my screen. Very weird. (edit) You're right, 3,7 looks much less painful. Changing it. <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif' /><!--endemo--> And unfortunately, HA doesn't have anything on the sides. It has a neck-guard coming up off the shoulders on either side. Only Vent 5 looks semi-decent, comparing against the original.(/edit)

    Much improved on Redford and my own designs - very commendable, fellas <3

    This makes me really want the game so I can continue on the trail of <b>DUBBILEX-TSA</b>



    Perhaps I'll actually play, if not for the game then for Squad Five <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    In fact, it's never empty... I idle in there even when I'm asleep.

    Obvious power restrictions... I'd rather keep standard Marines to being Assault Riflers, though secondary powers are malleable.
    As well, I'm open to other concepts (such as MedBots and the like), so long as they maintain the color and design scheme of the TSA. For the themed group not using these pre-sets, I'll have to approve on an individual basis... but I STRONGLY suggest using one of the presets.
    Commanders use the same body type, but are Controllers with Empathy as their secondary power. First power pool should either be Hover or Camouflage, the second PP being the other.

    1) Go to the <a href='http://www.mirc.com' target='_blank'>MIRC webpage</a> and download, install & run mIRC.
    2) Select the appropriate server (see image)

    The closest thing to GameSurge for me is Gamesnet. That's it.
