PrivateJoker Posted December 8, 2013 Share Posted December 8, 2013 (edited) Xcoms answer to Chryssalids, a modern warfare style German Shepherd which is very fast and does three points of melee damage. Possibly upgradeable bite or even the genetics lab can upgrade it to be a hunger games type attack dog. However it would be difficult before some official mod support is released of course. But the idea is intriguing to me. Thoughts? http://www.blogcdn.com/www.joystiq.com/media/2013/05/ghostdog.jpg Edited December 8, 2013 by PrivateJoker Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bertilsson Posted December 8, 2013 Share Posted December 8, 2013 Wouldn't an augmented soldier without mec suit be a better fit in that role? :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

xX893kiraXx Posted December 12, 2013 Share Posted December 12, 2013 Bring out the Russian's anti tank dogs! LOL if you know about them they are freaking useless against tanks. Just imagine a dog fighting a Sectopod it will just s#*! over the place and ethereal could easily mind controlled them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drakous79 Posted December 12, 2013 Share Posted December 12, 2013 It could be cyberdog :) Well, until release of official XCOM editor, I don't see it happening. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PrivateJoker Posted December 12, 2013 Author Share Posted December 12, 2013 Of course a sectopod, cyberdisc, ethereal and possibly chryssalids (depending on how the zombiefication works) would be a natural weakness for the dog class. But early game a dog would be a good alternative to the roles later mech units will fill or even gene upgraded soldiers, as dogs are cheaper, require less training and are more readily available AND are already in usage by special forces around the world. They even have heightened senses which would help out noticing alien activity on the battlefield. A dog would take down sectoids and thin men easily while having trouble with the gas thin men send out while exploding. They could probably also go toe to toe against floaters, however when mutons come they need to be upgraded to be evenly matched. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WolffLaarcen Posted December 13, 2013 Share Posted December 13, 2013 It could be cyberdog...I fully support the Cyberdog class. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PsyckoSama Posted December 16, 2013 Share Posted December 16, 2013 Absolutely not. Not only is it pretty much impossible, but its also stilly... and your sig image is obnoxious and distracting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
