Hm. It depends on the situation. If the platoon was absolutely critical to the mission and saving the LI would make Shepard fail, I'd have to let the LI die. On the other hand, if it was only a matter of not being able to get to one of them in time (like on Virmire), with no impact on the mission, I'm afraid my Shepard wouldn't be able to disregard his feelings and would do the selfish thing- save his LI.

And then you get renegade points:devil:

LI for sure. I'd be admittedly selfish in such a situation. Most people would agree

[SolidBeast]

That said, I'm not sure how Shepard would be able to live with himself.. Imagining leaving 50 terrified soldiers behind in favor of one person makes me feel like ****.I think he'd constantly ask himself how he could go on being with the one he loves while 50 families out there lost their loved ones thanks to him.... Plus, a thresher maw wiped out his entire crew once... And 50 people at that. No, no. Scratch what I said, I'd save the soldiers.

I would save my LI screw the platoon.

[What a Succulent Ass]

I'm assuming you mean in-game, so

...the platoon. Don't do the romances, and if I did, it wouldn't change anything anyway.

[Biobleh]

I think with my penis.

I'm saving Tali.

[AcidGlow]

If I had to choose between a platoon or something vital for the mission to defeat the reapers....I'd still pick my LI. lol

[Billabong2011]

Totally depends on the situation.

[JeffZero]

Depends entirely on who we're talking about here.

Miranda: Vital information on Cerberus. I'd choose her.
Tali: If she's exiled, I'd choose the platoon. If she isn't, I'd choose Tali. An important symbol of hope given her relationship to the now-dead admiral, her father.
Garrus: The platoon. He'd kill me otherwise, you know.
Liara: Foremost Prothean expert? Check. Shadow Broker? Check. Liara? Check.
Ashley: The platoon. She wouldn't have it any other way.
Kaidan: The platoon. Ditto.
Jacob: The platoon. 'Nother ditto.
Jack: Well lore-wise she's insanely powerful, so probably Jack.
Kelly: The platoon. Quirky woman, but not as valuable.
Thane: The platoon. C'mon, think about it.

I'd save my LI before a platoon of soldiers, unless my LI is with said Platoon of soldiers.

[GodWood]

In RL? Probably the loved one because I'm a selfish misanthropic git.

In game my Shepard would save the soldiers because he's much more pragmatic.

[S.A.K]

I'd save the LI. Tali in this case. If the LI is Jack, Miranda, Ashley or Thane I'll save the platoon.

[bleetman]

I'll take the actual character over faceless masses of non-characters any day.

As for my Shepard, eh. Depends on who the platoon was. They'd better be damn good at something to balance out whatever contribution the LI makes to Shepard's team. She generally doesn't make military decisions based on humanitarian reasons, and Garrus being alive and watching Shep's back is more useful than a bunch of grunts.

Let's see, save one person who you can have sex with, or save 20 people whose families will be eternally grateful?

I mean, sex is great and all, but really. I'd rather save the 20 guys so THEY can go home and have sex with their significant other. Plus, what would your LI think about you giving up 20 lives to save him/her?

This.

You'd save Jacob over Thane or Jack?

Lol forgot him. Can't blame me for that right. Add him to the kill list.

[nikkylee]

LI, for sure. I can just close my eyes and pretend the platoon never existed. The beauty of video games.

Worked okay in Fable 3, anyway. :-)

[Lightweight Nate]

Your squadmate and or love interest is probably deadlier than a couple hundred soldiers combined anyways, so I would probably have to go with LI. It doesn't hurt that Ashley, Liara, and Tali are all awesome, with the exception of Ashley's penchant for jealousy.

I have no idea how large a platoon is anyway.

Usually 16 men.

What if you had to choose between your biological father/mother and Tali?

I tell myself they're not real in an effort to assuage any feelings of temporary guilt that might rear up.  Makes saving the LI so much easier.

Well, I mean I guess it could differ as time goes on and nations merge and create a collective military. But generally speaking in the U.S. military a platoon sized element is roughly 50-60 personnel depending on that unit's load out and particalur role. Combat units typically lean to the larger side with 15 man squads plus your platoon commander and a platoon sgt. 



But yeah, I save the platoon only if it can be done so without sacrificing more lives in the process. But if I have to lose people to save either, I'll take 60 > 1 any day.
