Info of the OTA and AirWatch (OverWatch TransHuman Arm) RANKS AND ARM'S TO BE ADDED!

General OTA info, and radio contact RP.

The Overwatch Transhuman Arm is a branch of the Combine Overwatch that is formed from transhuman troops and whose main task is ensuring Combine rule on Earth.

They do not use regular radios that Recruits and Enlisted use. They have a visor, meaning you do not have to roll to use the radio in a combat situation. Here is an example WITH and WITHOUT rolls.

With rolls. (Standard CP)

(Our example will be a Oh-Four UNION trying to supress a rebellious citizen.)

The =UNION slides into a concrete fire, being supressed by a rebel wielding a MP7,

Bullets richotet above the unit's head, closing in on him.**

UNION attempts to contact other units using his handheld radio.

Both the unit and Rebel must roll.

UNION rolls 57

Rebel rolls 35

UNION sucessfully contacts any available units.

Without rolls

The OTA is being supressed by enemy fire.

The OTA speaks into his visor, contacting available units.

Now, wasn't that hard? You could be more descriptive, but either way, an OTA doesn't need to roll to use his visor to contact any units.

AirWatch info


The AirWatch is just like the OTA but set in a more aircraft atmosphere. Focusing on the use of Gunships, Drop ships, and Hunter Choppers to assist OTA and CCA units alike.

CP's have mask radios too. However, it's all in the backplate. I mean, it's got a vocoder, I don't see why you can't have an earpiece aswell. It's a little strange to roll just to put your finger on a radio, unless it was in a hand-to-hand combat situation.

Rolling is for people that're bad at RPing :3

Remember P2L? It actually happens.

You shouldn't need to roll on the radio unless you were in hand to hand combat, where you wouldn't be able to put your hand on the mask radio.
