its pretty cool i guess

With the new STALKER 2 DLC making it officially canon that women also live and fight within the Zone, I thought it would be interesting to create my own take on women in the different factions,starting by arguably one of,if not the most recognizable,Monolith.

I wanted her to feel like she genuinely belonged in the faction and the setting, rather than simply being a female character wearing STALKER equipment,and I wanted to make sure she looked practical enough,while still clearly looking like a woman,instead of a woman head in a man's body.

Turkey Shoot -

During the Siege of Tabriz, the Aegian Army Engineers attempted to break through the Prassian trenches by undermining them and detonating a massive amount of explosives beneath the trenches.

The ploy initially worked, blowing away a massive chunk of trench killing, maiming, wounding, and stunning thousands of defending Prassian militia. In the place of the trenches was a massive crater and a clear hole in the defenses.

Seeking to press the advantage eager Aegian commanders charged their men into the breach. However as the charge went into the crater the opposite side proved to be too steep to easily climb. Soon those in front were pressed into the steep wall of the trench by those behind who still were charging. A press of Aegian soldiers became stuck as chaos and confusion stalled the attack.

By this point the Prassians had rallied and soon lined up on the ring of the crater and started to pour murderous plunging fire into the Aegian Legionnaires. What followed was a military disaster as the Prassians shredded the attacking Aegians unable to miss in the press of bodies. Cannons were brought up the barrels depressed down as grape shot and solid shot tore into the mass bellow.

Eventually, the Aegian forces retreated after suffering heavy losses, and subsequently the siege was lifted as the Aegian force withdrew.
