Northstar Alliance in Team Fortress 2
Classes you can play are:
Medic
The Classic Medic Heals others, and healing people over time charges the UBERcharge, which when fully charged can make the medic and his heal target invulnerable for 15 seconds.. Great for breaking solid defences :)
Heavy
The heavy is often the partner of choice for a medic as they have the highest standard health... Their miniguns can cause untold damage to many foes, but their movement rate is increadibly slow when firing..
Soldier
The mainstay of any force, with the rocket launcher we all know and love from any FPS
Pyro
The Pyro is carnage up close, setting foes on fire!!
Demoman
Wielding a grenade launcher that can bounce grenades of walls etc. Also can fire up to 8 stciky bombs at a time, which can be remotely detonated later :) - great for defending doorways/choke points and checkpoints
Sniper
Does exactly what it says on the tin, with clasic 1-shot kills headshots if you get it right !!
Scout
Fastest mover, who can double jump, making him hard to hit. Only armed with a shotgun, but can still take down heavy classes if played right. The scout also captures control points at twice the speed of any other class.
Spy
Insanely powerful if played right, but that is very difficult. Can cloak (go invisible) for short periods, and can disguise himself as one of the enemy to mingle in their ranks... A backstab from the spy's knife is an insta-kill (but you loose your disguise...). Spys can also place electro-sappers to destroy engineers creations.
Engineer
My favourite class... Can use metal to build a dispenser that dispenses Health, Ammo and Metal, Teleporters to get your team mates to the front lines quickly, and also robo-sentry guns which have 2 levels of upgrade !!! - great fun!!
All of these classes combine to make a hugely tactical game...where each class has a roll to play against certain classes on the opposition.
My favourite class is the Enginner. This shot, shows the excellent cartoony nature of the graphics
Another good screenie of Engineers below
And this is why we all hate spies
Classic !!
There is also a brilliant movie of the various classes ""HERE"" - Just click the movie links on the right hand side ^^
