I was tempted to go with something similar a long time ago, but I figured it'd be handing things to my character Irvine a little too easy. So I have something else in mind, though it's hard to get it all down considering how I feel alot of the time.
Reminds me though, I've been meaning to research bodyswapping tech in the Star Wars Universe. The original idea for Irvine was to transplant his brain....But I'm feeling that's too messy.
Also, I sort of scrapped the 'neo clone troopers' concept for something else...
