Your soldiers have unlimited ammo, but they still have to reload?
Right? Please correct me if I'm wrong. Elaborate if you know more.
What made me think of this was that the heavy class has a gun called a "SAW"
... I was just thinking. Will there be a melee mechanic to all this?
I was just thinking of a scenario where your soldier is in serious need of a reloading his weapons. Then all of a sudden, on the next turn, you're in melee range of a gray or a muton. Your buddy is blind sided... and you're only resort is to ...
You're overwatched and you have the actions to spare, but it's either reload or fight in close range?
Will close range be some sort of "suppression"... keeping the alien and that soldier busy? In a duel to the death, while other team members move and "combo" actions.
The demo videos I've seen has shown chrysalids animations kickin' ass in close range.
Do you think there will be some sort of melee weapon / animation? Remember the Stun Rod???
Throw in a saving throw kind of mechanic in there while you're at it. As long as you have enough "actions," or whatever they're calling it, couldn't your soldier save the day or save their own skin by some amazing luck? Be the hero he/she was meant to be.
That would just be fantabulous...!
Just thought of Sigourney Weaver face to face with a Xenomorph. F'yea!
