What’s your ideal Lethal Company squad?

This begs the question: if given the choice, what is your ideal team?

I see merit in having at least one newbie on a team to guide through the process.

it’s possible for you to, of course, get entertainment at their expense.

Bonus points if they can guard me against low-threat monsters in case I encounter any more face-hugging scenarios.

What are your funniest moments from playing Lethal Company?

“This is a high-value bulb!”

I proclaimed, snatching it up and eagerly showing them the way back to the ship.

I immediately got struck by lightning, my body flailing in the air like an especially doughy pizza base.

That is the last time I pretended to know anything about games.
