I guess I was a solider? Thomas q/a

The past few weeks have been super busy at work, so I didn't really end strong. Added to that being infantry was tough and not very rewarding in my mind so motivation hit rock bottom near the end.

Still if folks have any questions let me know.

Agreed that infantry should have gotten more glory and monetary rewards and such. Mechwarriors got shiny new mechs. There was the star league defense force armoured clothing early on though, which was nice!

How come Thomas never mentioned to Felicity that they had met before?

Did you plan for him to be fairly loner-ish? Most threads had others approach him, otherwise he just kept out the way was my impression.

Hrm, it just never really came up? Not that they had actually chatted. Seeing someone around a few years back may have come up if they had chatted a bit more. Sadly he got put off my her suggesting he date a client.

It wasn't really about physical rewards though. Most of what made infantry suck was math, and the need for far too many skills. Melee weapons need weapon groups. Pistols should likely be folded into light infantry weapons. My exp was pretty much all caught up into survival and shooting as weapons do 6k3 damage and minimum atn for enemy infantry should likely vary between 23 and 26. Ref 2 is atn 15, armor is plus 8, cover plus 3.

Means you're looking at 8k4 to hit reliably and you don't get any bonuses for school. I really had no ability to participate in events other then the occasional infantry fights and basically was just around to escort echo Corp so they could go places. Honestly that was the majority of my threads.

Thomas isn't particularly a loner. But he didn't really have anyone in the same wheel house as him after Karlotta died. He kept a professional distance from Echo Corp and well. Everyone else was mech warriors and techs, and it was pretty obvious to Thomas that Yuri thought the mech warriors were much more important then the infantry. Which kinda led to Thomas keeping most of the pilots at arms length.

Should likely add that at least a few of my threads ended up being weapon maintenance. Which was something needed after combat too.

I enjoyed Thomas. I think he was kind of nice guy.

He did seem a bit of a loner but I guess that is understandable. I did enjoyed our threads together.

I think Colette never asked: what was Thomas favorite food?

Food. That was Thomas's favorite food. I suppose if he had to pick? Paella.

And yes, thanks for the threads. Sorry we didn't finish the last one.
