I'm curious how easy it would be to add anything to this game as far as combat is concerned. I definitely would like to see the ability to make ground troops which I could drag into a ship and drop them onto a planet and use them the same way I would as in civ stage. The only question is how would they handle switching between UFO control and combat control. Hrmm actually they sort of can do something like that in a few instances...

  Well I can hope for the best

 I actually was a high level hunter and played around 100 characters to cap in the day but I quite due to getting a girlfriend. Amazing how much time they take... They make a raid look like a walk in the park Although the stat boosts are unimaginable

 That being said I literally had to give away all of my epic gear, give my gold away and make it utterly impossible to play my character to quite totally. Years away from WoW and I still have the urge...

 Wait? Red died? Not in mine. I saved them all. Mind you I figured I knew where they were going to come from so I ran down the road outside town and set up a field of mines. None of them ever got out alive. I went back to town and they were all fine. Very happy to see me too, scream our hero! 

 I did end up having the weirdest time at the Super-Duper Mart. I left the intercom near the front desk on and heard the leader getting in a scuffle with his buddy. Some sort of argument. I got to the intercom and there both dead! Freaked me out! I guess they killed each other. Then I leave the building and three hunters are there and a kid is running up to me for help and.. they start shooting at the kid! WTF?! I had to kill the hunters and get a Karma drop. Mind you I was a messiah lol. So it wasn't much of a drop.

 Hrmm then I had the strangest time as a Raider camp where I shot near a raiders feet. He thought his buddy did  it and started to attack his friend, soon the whole camp was killing each other. I just stood back watching the fire works until the last one was standing and a other was running. Killed them both and just shook my head and moved on.

 OH OH! I also attacked a army of super mutants with my ripper! WAHAHAHAH! TO FUNNY! I cut one of the mutants arms off and the others went and I quote, HE BAD RUN FOR DA HILLLLLLSSS!!! I had 8 mutants running from me and they got stuck on a fence. What a massacre!

 The AI in Fallout 3 is really.. COOL!

Yeah, simply a blast! Plus it seems after I hit a enemy with the ripper the psychological effects are pronounced. I had a whole pack of Raiders running in fear hahaha.

 Ah shucks, that means we have to have Charisma past six to hear all they have to hear?
Hrmm thats not a issue now:D
Someone just made a level cap mod! You can level up to level 40. Which means more perks, skills and specials http://www.fallout3nexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=121

 Uh please explain. I'm not home so I cant test it. Does it allow you to basically get out of any negotiation as the winner? If so thats not exactly a winners button if you intend to be a combatant.

 At the moment Im using a:
 5 str , 7 percept., 5 End. , 6 Charisma , 10 Int. , 8 Agil. 7 luck build.
This is basically identical to my Fallout 3 build which was also a Gunsmith/Sniper/Scavenger. The Perception basically allows me to use my weapon perks related to rifles and pistols. The charisma 6 appears to open up most of the dialouges I want.  The lucky helps with that as well. Although luck is great for combat as well. i get a ton of crits. The INT is so I have more points to put into Small guns and such. You get 20 points per level at 10 INT. Agil is so I have Action points, plus action boy. Plus the grim reaper. I stay in vats forever at this point. Its a turned based combat style and very fun.

 Overall only Int. is necessary to be at 10. The rest are optional and linked to perks. Charisma actually may end up being more important. I have to test and see what types of dialogues require higher charisma.
