Thanks a bunch for the quick reply! And don't worry about it, that's why I figured I'd put the prompt up and ask! Evidently I ended up switching out the M-5 Phalanx for the Ushior and the Omni-Blade for a Firaan. Figured him brining his own gear would evidently in the end make more sense, probably, though honestly I could see it going either way. Would of switched out the Mattock as well, but from what I remeber and double checking on the wiki, we aren't introduced to an angara variant so the Mattock should do. (Could of just traded it out for an Isharay, but I don't really picture Anjor as a sniper rifle guy in my head for some reason...)

And yeah well the long and the short of it was that I sort of stumbled into a Jaal romance in my first play through without really intending to. Evidently, I ended up sort of falling for the angara after that primarily because of all the stupid adorable emails he sends you. That and from the admittedly little glimpse we get at their culture throughout the game, they are kinda fascinating. Biologically engineered by a race of mysterious precursors that peaced out and never returned, fighting a desperate war of survival. That and I mean their social hierarchies and dynamics actually reflect that of real life lions really well. So they aren't just giant talking space cats... they are giant talking space lions! And that I at least think is hella cool.

But of course! It's half my job to check up on this thing frequently. ;D The Mattock is fine; it's easy to consider a part of the liasion program, our opening bit has a training component so we can actually have him learning how to use the weapon there.

I'm doing my run as FemRyder ATM and I think I might go for Jaal, a lot for the reasons you mentioned. The angara are really fascinating and Jaal was just a great character altogether, I loved that scene where he takes you to his ridiculously large family to show you him childhood room like he's an excited kid again. It kind of gave me the impression he was forced to grow up way too quickly because of the kett and he lost a lot of the experiences we tend to grow out of. It was up there with movie night for me lol.

I didn't actually catch the lion dynamics! I'm going to have to play with that in mind to see what I pick up.

OH YEAH, EVERYBODY!

Don't forget your deadline is midnight MST (-7GMT) on Friday the 12th. That gives you a bit under 2 days, depending where you live!
