Swat vest

[Pookie The Krogan]

Iv found one so far, is there some where there is more of it?

Do you mean the advanced tactical vest? Will always be a warm body in one of those. One place where you can get three or so is: The underground bunker. There are others but that location they are at least spread out and you can fight them one or two at a time.

There are indeed SWAT vests/armor in the game although so far I've only managed to find them at the hotel in the outskirts of austin

i found one at a shelter in a box but im having troble there jpcerutti and hits on fighing the roug soiders?.

Should also be some (maybe two?) on combatants.

Throwables. Dropped explosives as timed or mines. Hiding your guys in hall doorways and using the fast guy as bait to lure them down the hall - preferably one at a time. If you have the wild dog he makes a handy sacrifical lamb here. People can only go through doorways one at a time if you use them as chokepoints.

If you get into trouble too fast remember that, if you close a door between you, then you are suddenly invisible to the AI (but they will be right on the other side of the door when you open it for a quick attack).

Try not to box up your own crew unless you all have gas masks.

The first time I went in, I was nerve gas attacked and spent the next two turns losing Getz, Dog and Paul while we were all paralyzed on the ground. It also gave enough time for the other members of that group to run over and start shooting me down as we ran away.

Lampasas shelter and the other two shelters have a decent chance of having swat/equivalent gear, at least they did in my game. Worst case, you can raid that Police group and just take the morale hit from Vic.

I'd rather have a unique bow or sniper rifle party of max ranged characters. 10-16 squares away of death from afar, silent killer or the noisy but extremely deadly

I am low tech, and go for the interesting over the efficient way of doing something every time.

Also, f5/f7 are two of my closest friends. :)
