Chuck versus the Tangos

Overview of the mod

This mod is based on the comedy spy TV show Chuck. It gives you the choice between non-lethal and lethal early in the game. It all depends on what option you like best. You can either go full non-lethal with Chuck and Morgan and/or choose Sarah* and Colonel Casey who are well trained in killing the tangos. Last but not least, you can also count on the Clandestine Attack Team (C.A.T. squad) to get the job done, with their team leader Sarah*. The other team members are: Carina* (ice queen), Zondra* (the ♥♥♥♥♥) and Amy* (the party girl) . And if you need an even larger squad, you can always call in some S.W.A.T. officers.

*) Important notice: All of the women on Chuck's team have active female aliases, therefore they all use a male voice box* to make sure those aliases are not blown.

Weapons added

• Tranq Gun [low dose] marked yellow: Neutralizes target for 10 seconds. Less sound than a normal gun, large magazine, normal fire rate. Also available for Shield class as one handed weapon. Max. range: 15m.
  
• Tranq Gun [high dose] marked red: Neutralizes target for 20 seconds. Less sound than a normal gun, small magazine, low fire rate. Also available for Shield class as one handed weapon. Max. range: 15m.
  
• XREP Shotgun: Shoots Tazer Rounds out of a 12 gage shotgun. Neutralizes target for 30 seconds. Long range, but loud. Max. range: 30m.
  
• The Tazer is made available for free, to be used as a Secondary Weapon for all classes. It is also free in the Utility Pouch. Max. range: 7m.

Armor and Gear added

• Riot Armor: gives protection from all sides, although it is a little less than most armors. Great for crowd control, e.g. on Black Friday at the Buy More.
  
• Tear Gas grenade: when dropped releases gas, your agents wear protective gear so it does not affect them.
  
• Noisemaker: when dropped makes a clicking sound to lure the tangos out.

Notable changes to Tazer animation and Tazer stats graph

• Please note that due to the tazer game mechanic used for Tranq Guns, I have removed the Electric Tazer animation for victims. 
  
• And due to balancing the Tazer, Tranq Guns and the XREP Shotgun, I had to adjust the minimal and maximum settings for the Tazer. Therefore the graph of the Tazer has changed.

Portraits added

• Chuck, Sarah, Morgan, Colonel Casey, Amy, Zondra, Carina.
  
• 10 S.W.A.T. officers in full gear, no faces visible.

Important: this portrait pack replaces all existing portraits, to make it a bit easier to quickly select members of Chuck's team to your roster and have the option to add S.W.A.T. officers for larger squads.

OPTIONAL mod to use with Chucks versus the Tangos

• Uniform Switcher, made by Red Panda.
  I have added code to all weapons, armor and gear for the Uniform Switcher classes.
  
  Please note that you cannot use this optional mod for Single Missions 1 to 4 due to class restrictions of those missions. Make sure to chose your color first and then your class and gear, since choosing the color resets class and gear. This mod will unlock all classes due to the nature of the classes needed for all the uniform colors, so it is a cheat in this respect. Also noticed the interface for selecting colors and/or classes can be quite buggy. In short, a mod to handle with care.

DO NOT use together with these mods (due to integration in this mod)

• Peaceful Pacification Pack, made by OneMoreNameless.
  
• Less than lethal Weapons, made by Red Panda.
  
• Stealth Doctrine, made by Red Panda.

Credits - external resources

• Thanks modder OneMoreNameless, for the Peaceful Pacification Pack that I used to add: Tranq Guns, Noisemaker (modified the sound), Tear Gas, Riot Armor.
  
• Thanks to modder Red Panda for the Less than Lethal Weapons Pack that I used to add: XREP shotgun (modified to balance it with the Tranq Guns) and the Tazer as a Secondary Weapon for free (modified the description). Also thanks for the Stealth Doctrine, I needed to embed this mod to work with the added weapons in this mod.
  
• Thanks to all people involved in making the comedy spy TV show Chuck.

Change notes

• Fixed: the Tazer (one hand) was showing up double for the Shield class if you already unlocked it. Also made the Tazer in the Utility Pouch available for free.
  
• Fixed stealth doctrine for tazers, can now also silently open doors.
  
• Updated Tranq Gun descriptions, added their range of 15m. Changed Tazer descriptions to default setting.
  
• Changed the tag 'sounds' to 'sound' in the mod.xml to fit the right category.
  
• Removed the voice saying 'Deploying Tazer' since that is not true for the Tranq Guns. And updated the sounds for the Tranq Guns, reloading now sounds like reloading a gun with a magazine.
  
• Embedded the Stealth Doctrine mod by Red Panda, to be able to use the stealth ability for silently opening doors with weapons in this mod.
  
• Fixed the portraits getting stuck.

Hope you enjoy this mod, it's the first that I have made.
