Back on topic: the Combine assassins would be really cool to fight. Someone put up a video of some of the enemies in the beta, and the assassin is one of them.

The assassin is at 1:08 seconds. Two machine pistols, glowing LED trail for an eye, martial arts, would've been great!
Also features old stalkers (even creepier then the final ones), bullsquid, old zombies, soldiers, antlions, and even the mortar synth!
Looks like it fires some weird electric beam between its prongs.
There no sound in the video, but its still impressive.
Then why can Wikipedia do those things? Granted, its the Black Mesa mod, but still: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:Bmspcguk2.jpg
There's a very good reason indeed.
As for posting beta content: My understanding is that as long as one doesn't say where to get it, it's fine (I don't know how to find it anyway)
oh my god thats freaking awesome. Now still, it would be even cooler if it leapt on walls
i am glad they didnt use that wierd dude in the suit with the big gun... it wasnt very half life ish to me
