The Engineer: Difference between revisions

* Subverted in ''[[Paranoia (game)|Paranoia]]'': each Troubleshooter team generally has a designated Equipment Guy (among other Mandatory Bonus Duties), but it doesn't mean he's any good (especially when The Computer assigns roles based on ''who needs the most practice'').

 

* Quite obviously, The Engineer, Dell Conagher (and both his father and grandfather, likely to be a family tradition, considering a few images seemed to imply that his father is the engineer from [[Team Fortress Classic]]) from ''[[Team Fortress Classic|Team Fortress]]'' and ''[[Team Fortress 2]]''. He specifically is an example of a Combat Engineer, supplying ammo and equipment to fellow soldiers and constructing [[The Turret Master|turrets]] and [[Transporters and Teleporters|teleporters]].

** The Engineer is better at defense than offense, though he can be played as a "Battle Engie" with the right loadout (specifically, the Gunslinger and the Frontier Justice).

* Engineers in ''[[Civil War Generals]] 2'' build and remove obstructions, fortifications, and bridges, but are poor fighters.

* In ''[[Torchlight]] II'', the Engineer is not only capable of making turrets but is also the resident [[Meat Shield|Tank]] wearing [[Steampunk]] [[Powered Armor]] while wielding [[Drop the Hammer|hammer-like]] [[Wrench Whack|wrenches]].
