been gone for a while, but came back with a new idea, a Half Life 2 based RPG. where you either play a Civilian turn member of the resistance, or a Civil Protection member (i'll explain if you don't know the story). This will take place in City 17, and the other places near it, starting at the beginning of the revolt.
Backstory: some time in the 2000's a research facility called Black Mesa was testing with a strange and unknown crystal. But in one of the tests, the crystal suddenly, and furiously began to cause discrepancies in the equipment causing explosions and destruction, and teleporting strange aliens all over the facility, mercilessly killing everyone, people began fleeing towards the surface of the facility, but in a matter of hours Marines began landing and killing everyone as well, trying to contain the outbreak and keep it under wraps. Though they failed and the rip between Earth, and the alien world "Xen" widened. letting an assortment of aliens through, including the Combine. After the combine came through they started a war with all of earth, which ended in a matter of hours with billions dead, Peace, negotiated by Dr. Wallace Breen has caused a military state rule over earth, with Breen as a spokesperson of sorts. the Combine have a complete dominance over earth, but the people left are not happy at all, they started a resistance, at first small and weak, but it grew as more people joined, and now due to recent events, they are starting to revolt against their masters and this is where the game begins.
The two basic 'classes': instead of having a set of classes, i'll let you make your own class as the game moves on.
Combine Civil Protection: the lowest rank of combine forces, still completely human, but wear white masks that seem to be a gasmask of sorts, and use vocorders to hide their voice. Equipment:Combine Mask, light bullet resistant vest, leather boots, black-green uniform, Stun baton.
Resistance: mostly citizens, paired with a Xen alien race called the Vortigaunts, previously slaves of a large entity called the Nihilanth but now allied with the resistance against the Combine. The citizens themselves are oppressed people angry towards the combine. Equipment:Citizen Clothes (basically a blue boiler suit), Suitcase containing misc. items

"Daw, these people PISS me off." I shake my fist at the hallway. Then send off the Manhack to clear the canals inner workings. I wait for it to go ahead for a little while, maybe ten feet. Then I follow off after it at uniform speed.
