RabidMaggot wanted the Combine Assassin added (Or something) And I agreed. Problem is they're kinda hard to work with In-Game. IC they'd most likely be armed with snipers and dual pistols and would be incredibly acrobatic. They'd most likely be used to attract people into joining the MPF/OTA too (Cmon,everyone wants to see tits.) They would add some variety to RP and would allow much more "Verticallity" When it comes to raiding etc. We know that they're pretty powerful and I'd imagine them being able to take down several rebels without using her weapons,but that's just my SFM ideas talking. While they wear EOW armour,I think that they still have their old personality etc,just so they're not bland boring characters (Look at the Combine Assassin poster in trainstation,do they look personality-less to you?)

I totally agree with the Combine Assassin being introduced whithin the server for several reasons: Reason number one: Combine Assassins are actually the most powerful Overwatch units standing next to the EOW with it's acrobatic, speed and firearm specialist, it can surely bring down a who gang of rebels. Reason number two: Yet again, combine assasins do have a bit of personality, but not that much to engage in sex or anything related to it. Reason number three: They or it are/is deployed in highly urgent situations such as:Eliminating anti-citizen one (Or atleast anti-citizens because anti-citizen one is the infamous Gordon Freeman), Code SACRIFICE, supporting a VIP (such as the City Administrator, The MPF CmD and MPF SeC) rescuing mission, Guarding the CA's office along with EOW units (since the EOW are picked for a guarding position)
Well, I hope that all I can say.

The Combine Assassin The 'Combine Assassin' is an oddity within the ranks of the Overwatch - primarily because it is not a designation nor an official unit the Universal Union had put in place originally and neither was it a role that was ever meant to see combat. In fact, the Assassin was originally the brainchild of some of the best and brightest of Earth as a way to sell what the Universal Union was pushing with a little more ease than the Union themselves were trying shortly after the Seven Hour War had ended. After all the Union knew little of the ways of the people of earth at the time (and many would say did not care) but as evidenced by the numerous propaganda posters and the adaptations they made in regards to working with humanity, this swiftly changed.
Thus the original Assassins functioned as literal poster children, particularly for the Civil Protection - they had little to no combat experience, not being expected to be forced to fight, only talk - and thus drawn not from military veterans, but attractive models and public speakers. After all, they where a human creation - not those the Union yet endorsed fully, so there was little cause to train them for anything other than looking good and being able to talk the Union's Mantra into those they wished to persuade with more than the threat of violence. More often seen out of armor than in it, these women (and a rare few men) attended meetings and acted as diplomats and ambassadors for the Union's cause, using every trick they had to sell it.
People ate it up, and the response in those first few months was phenomenal. Of course, after the Suppression Field went up and things seemed to calm down, the Assassins role looked as if it was doomed to be cast aside with little to no use left in them besides adorning more posters. Until, of course, the first Uprisings began. Now they did become potent weapons - there was no room for dead weight and plenty of room for a covert operation to put a bullet in the brain of a Resistance Leader. Gone where those drawn from models and public speakers (though both talents are still valued even now), instead they where drawn from some of the best women the Metropolice had to offer, augmented and trained into superhuman killers.
And yet, they differ from the Overwatch. There is, by necessity, elements of their personality that must be kept intact for them to be able to function in their role. They are, despite being wholly loyal to the Universal Union through brainwashing, permitted to keep a much broader spectrum of emotions, to be able to get close and kill discreetly. In truth, rare is the Assassin even now that dons her armor to kill. In fact, they're still more often used to attend high functions and 'look good' than anything else - in fact they're commonly used as discreet bodyguards for important personnel, when OTA are too conspicuous. Their armor is only worn when they're deployed into high-risk situations they cannot bluff themselves into. They wear a modified version of the Overwatch armor; lacking the heavy plating and trading it out for a skin-mesh that provides them a surprisingly substantial amount of protection, as well as a modified helmet. Their most common weapon is the 9mm; though they also wield MP7's and Sniper rifles for long-ranged kills.
Though many Assassins are hand-picked to go through their own training, they're also drawn from the Civil Protection as a potential path female members can take - though, as before, there is the odd male assassin.
So that was just a little thing I cooked up for them, based on my own personal views and not anything Valve may have created, as functionally they're a blank slate for me to work off of.
