Heavy is a football player
sniper is hockey
Medic is referee
Scout can be a swimmer in a tight suit
Soldier can be a tennis player
Special: idk

Soldier should be Lacrosse or some sport with a stick to simulate a spear.

I don't know what lacrosse is, but maybe a fencer?

How about a baseball player with a baseball bat that has 3 spikes on the tip?

Also, might sound kind of random, but what if it was a zombie sports team? And the special had something zombie like for the power?

I also think a holiday/Mythical Thing set would be cool!
Scout-Tooth Fairy
Medic-Heart (Valentine's Day)
Soldier-Turkey
Sniper-Bunny (Eggs)
Heavy-Santa (Duh)
Special-I don't know?? Can't do Uncle Sam because the game is international... :/

What do you think?

Ive discovered something that all the current teams have in common.

-their soldiers all hold a trident of some kind
-they have creative and indirect names: scallywags could have just been called sea team. And adorables could be called the cute team. And feedback could just be called the robot team.
-most characters have the form of humanoids

These may or not be the benchmark for suggesting teams.

Also, all medics have a plus sign, all snipers have one eye. All specials ability ties into their name and/or team name.

Scrambler - scrambles brains (and it is a brain)
Mobi - mobilizes it's troops (and the name mobi, from Moby Dick, about a whale)
Bombshell - it uses bombs and and shell (shell goes with the sea theme)

I like the baneling idea.

(07-12-2012 02:02 AM)drewby83 Wrote:  Dinosaurs
Runner - raptors (fast, thus the 5 movement)
Soldier - triceratops (3 horns, so equipped for battle as a soldier)
Medic - stegosaurus (with a medical '+' symbol on one of their back plates)
Sniper - brontosaurus (slow, thus only 1 movement, tall, so 3 vision, of course drawn with only one eye )
Heavy - t-rex (obviously big, heavy, and strong)
Special - pterosaur (special action will be the ability to soar over the battlefield, explained below. this also keeps with OML's theme with the specials and their ability: the pterosaur can 'soar' over the battlefield)

Special:
H-1
S-1
D-1
Special ability 'soar' would allow unit to fly anywhere on map, including into fog of war. If lands on open space, can still use movement (if available) and can still attack. If lands on enemy, causes 1 damage and stuns enemy, unable to move or attack for their next turn. Pterosaur would fall to nearest unoccupied space next to attacked opponent, towards their own side. 

What do you think? Too powerful or just right?

PS- love this game, I've been lurking around the forums for the past few days. You've all got some great ideas on teams, I just had to chime in.

Glad you reposted, I did miss it.
Sounds like it could be a thing!
I do not like the special though :/

I liked the holiday idea, but in general, it wouldn't work.
Many countries have COMPLETELY different things.
Like let's just say India (cuz I'm from there and I know stuffz...) we don't have any of that stuff. So yea...

We have complete other holidays that are just as much fun! But back on topic, don't want this thread getting off topic.

Where I'm from we don't have flying, teleporting narwhals either so a holiday theme should be OK even for players from countries that don't have the same ones
