Incidentally, character talk reminds me: are we considering the possibility of broadening character pools to "characters who have appeared in videogames, in their videogame forms"? For example, including Captain America as a merc. Or Deadpool. Or James Bond. It instantly enlarges our pool of recognizable mercs MASSIVELY.
EDIT: Gonna send things over, gimme a second.
