Feedback Needed

[Cammys2311]

Hi everyone I'm currently brainstorming new ideas for a new faction pack I'm going to be starting soon as I took a break from modding for no reason but I've given myself a kick on the arse to get back into it so I'd like to share my current ideas for a faction pack and I'd like to know what people think of the idea and if they would like to play with it and if it would add flavour.

Features:
- Comes accross as a top tier special operations like mercenary group
- High-Tech, hostile with brotherhood
- Infantry focused with power armour & Specialist support
- Questline from starting the faction to bigger things
- Bounty quests that represent contracts by clients e.g:
Kill target
Retreive High Value Item
Guard Area
- Custom Uniforms, Army Fatigues + Beret with logo?
- Companion of some kind
- Lore Friendly introduction

- Faction Ranks:
Blackwatch Recruit - Standard Blackwatch fatigues + beret + assault rifle
Blackwatch Contractor - Standard Blackwatch fatigues + beret + light combat chest and arms + laser rifle
Blackwatch Veteran Contractor - Standard Blackwatch Fatigues + Blackwatch Helmet + full mid combat armour + upgraded laser weapon
Blackwatch Expert Contractor - Standard Blackwatch Fatigues + Blackwatch Helmet + full mid combat armour + plasma rifle
Blackwatch Warfighter - Standard Blackwatch Fatigues + Advanced Blackwatch Helmet + Full Heavy Combat Armour + Upgraded Plasma rifle

- Special Units:
Blackwatch Shock Trooper - Power armoured in X-01 + minigun - MUST BE VERY EXPENSIVE
Blackwatch Engineer - Non Combat Unit - Provides boost to resources in outpost?
Blackwatch Flamethrower - Combat Hazard Suit + Flamethrower - Useful in more tight areas
Blackwatch Officer - Officer-like clothing - Provides Morale boost or stat boost to others in battle
Blackwatch Sniper - Stealth Like Outfit - Specialist in long range weapons

This is what I've currently thought up so far, thanks in advance for any feedback.

Oh, just a humble thought?

maybe a melee / build in there somewhere?
Knife / swords and whatnot?
an up close and personal kind of build for a melee stealth assassin?
Still, high tech but maybe that uses chameleon armor and such?
just a suggestion. I am a ranged player and use companions myself for close support. Hahaha, so dead opposite of my own play style

Kind of like snake eyes in GI Joe. The twin ninjas. With the swords...

I prefer stealth characters myself...

Splinter Cell: chaos theory is one my all time favorite.

I suppose that would be an interesting and cool special unit to have, don't know if it would be effective in combat due to fallout's ai lol, but it's still a good idea I'll add it to my list.

I’d slap that engineer with a missile launcher and call them a combat engineer Blowing things up is what they live fore.

Sappers, they are “Ubique” and “Essayons” is what they do

I play ultimate survival - Iron Fist maxed out with Blitz maxed out is just fine... maxed out with Action Girl, etc... plus some use crafting framework - put 500 pts damage on something and you are a melee butt kicker …

Having said that - you can build your characters with traits similar...

You can add various combat AI to them as well - Look at Aurora for 2 handed fist combat AI that is absolute kick butt... Vex the Best Knife fighter has knife melee combat AI that is just as great.

Of course, I have upgraded both of them by changing their stats etc...

SKK Settlement Attacks - one of these companions and their AI (there is a hidden Courser Combat AI as well, btw hehehe) … will destroy a full regiment attack of Supermutants - alone... hand to bladed boards/missile launchers.. or Vex and her upgraded knife... one alone is the ultimate bodyguard.

What I am saying is that you can make your characters do anything you want... just give them the right attributes - OP in some areas, weaker in others...

I knew you could customise atributes like that to an extent but I didn't know by how much so thanks for the heads up!

yeah sounds good, just don't want to make too many powerful special units that's why I was initially thinking just have an enginner as a supporting unit at an outpost.

ha, then give him a pistol and an assortment of hand grenades. He’ll be happy!

there’re some new conqueror mechanics coming, maybe he can be. Your suicide bomber?

oh, now that is a good one?

Suicide bombers eh? Well that gives some more options. I'm intending to take a lot of time with this faction pack before I release it so that gives me something to do and think about inbetween trying to learn how to texture things and be able to photo edit a flag lol

Yet again I'm aiming this as a liberator faction pack but if I make a conqueror version (Which I will most likely do at some stage) I might just add a few extras
