MINI STRIDER!

Yes, it's the Episode Two Mini Strider, the early form of the Hunter as seen in the 2006 trailer!

The Mini Strider is the missing link between Striders and Hunters. For what it lacks in heavy hull plating and the capabilities to be a walking weapon of mass destruction, the Mini Strider possesses amazing strength, prowess in groups, excellent pack communication, tough anti-flak armor, and blinding agility, similar to the Hunter.

Unlike the Hunter, however the Mini Strider did not possess a long-range comms antenna, feelers, or quick-extendending impalers. Instead, it only had it's claws and dual cannons. In addition, rather than working as it's eyes and flechette launchers, the dual cannons worked as pulse rifles, with the sides of it's 'face' containing two groups of dual compound eyes, rather than scarred and disfigured flesh.


This addon contains -

Beta animations, the animation from the Ep1 Mossman transmission, and more! (Requires Easy Animation Tool)
Full Sub Material tool compatibility! (Requires Sub Material Tool, obviously.)
A complete lack of any NPCs!
And NO Half-Life 2: Episode Two requirements!


Also, it'll crash the game if you attempt to use model manipulator to make it replace the Hunter without disabling AI. (Thanks, BlackSnow.)

But otherwise it's all good and posable! But not as flexy as the Hunter, so keep that in mind.

WARNING! Carry on reading! Or you will die, even if you only looked at the word warning! Once there was a little girl called Clarissa, she was ten-years-old and she lived in a mental hospital, because sHE kiLled her mom and her dad. She got so bad she went to kill all the staff in the hosPital so the more- government decided that best idea was to get rid of her so they set up a special room to kill her, as humane as possible but it went wrong the machine they were using went wrong. And she sat there in agony for hours until she died. Now every week on the day of her death she returns to the person that reads this letter, on a monday night at 12:00a.m. She creeps into your room and kills you slowly, by cutting you and watching you bleed to death. Now send this to ten other profiles on this one site, and she will haunt someone else who doesn't. This isn't fake. apparently, if u copy and paste this to ten comments in the next ten minutes u will have the best of your life. TIC TAC

still easily my favourite combine enemy, even if they did not make an appearance in the base game.

(The mini Strider was a cut enemy originally made as the og Hunter. However it made appearances in some early trailers, and in the scene when Mossman gets attacked by combine in Episode 1, this was later replaced with Hunters. In the Episode 1 mod files, you can find the og mini Strider, however it has no textures and is in a sort of Deep Blue colour.
They also lack the mantis claws and exhaust pipe of the Hunter) :]
Hope that helps anyone wondering.
