Holy shit... did you get in on the beta, or something?
I was on Beta, but all chars were deleted.
I don't do xmas and my GF was out of the country... and voila! A L50 char!

I like, with the Trooper, not having to run up on every enemy I'm gonna fight... standing back and going 'pew pew pew' has its advantages.
Vanguards are tanks, so we tend to have to run up - but I made my choice myself.
(Vanguards have a couple of 'gap closing' abilities too.)

What crew skills did you pick? I have Scavaging and Cybertech and they seem to work well together.
Arch, Scav and Slice.
But if you join a nice guild there is little reason to choose one skill over another, other than to have a skill the guild lacks.
Crafting costs a bit to level, though.
But Slicing makes a lot of cash - so it balances.

The Progenitor.
Ops next week when my new PC arrives...

Do they have any healing? I suppose I could just look that up...
Nope.
Commando has healing/dps - Vanguard has tanking/dps.

Since they both wear the heavy armor, the defense increase from the Vanguard's defense abilities would be somewhat marginal
Normally, when questing, you would use a companion that compliments your class choice.
If you choose a Commando then you would use your tanking companion (and the reverse if a Vanguard).
(Or you could DPS as either Commando or Vanguard with a healer companion - but this is not so good with boss mobs.)
Your class choice only really matters if you are doing instances and you don't want to DPS.
There is normally a companion to compliment your play style.

Re: SWTOR
The specs that CS listed in Message 98 are what my current PC has and the game runs a bit sluggish, but fine for normal questing/levelling.
But I have had to stop running instances until my new PC arrives as my current spec is not good enough for tanking when lots of stuff is happening.

What's your worst birthday and why?
Each birthday is worse than the last.
Each is another painful step towards death and oblivion.
Marking the passing of each year with faux joviality and inane gifts just leaves me cold.
We are born screaming and crying and no doubt we will die the same way.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!
