And here arives another newcomer to the Half Life Universe. You've done a hell of a job on this forum, guys. Now, eh-hem, we move on.
-I am curious about The Overwatch: are they "The Combine" themselves (that's what I first thought...), or are they humans fused with Combine technology (Transhumans?) in the same method as the Gunship and Dropships(like synth-ettes)?
-If the second idea is true, how did they take Earth in the first place without the bulk of their force? Was Earth just wiped out in the Xen invasion? Did they have another race on their leash? Was it an inside job (Dr. Breen)? The Combine couldn't very well take control of the planet with just the heavy handed off world creatures you face later in the game, they need troops.
I was intrigued by this when listening to Breen scold the Overwatch in Nova Prospekt. He threatened their "extinction" I believe... Yet I always thought Breen was just a puppet. Ah (hold head)... If you wish, comment. If not, fetch me an Ibuprofin...
P.S.: And I'll, just for safety, apologize if this is explained in another Thread, I couldn't find the information I desired so.
