Team Fortress Classic are the titular characters of the video game Team Fortress Classic, originally fighting for unknown reasons. The team later returned in the Team Fortress 2 comic book series, serving as major antagonists.

As revealed by the Team Fortress Catch-Up Comic, TFC was originally hired by Redmond and Blutarch Mann in the 1930s to fight the Gravel War they were waging against each other. After being replaced by the Team Fortress 2 mercenary team in 1968, TFC dropped off the map. They were later hired in 1972 by Gray Mann, and given the task of locating the Administrator and her secret cache of Australium, where they came into conflict with their replacements.

History[]

Gravel War[]

The Team Fortress Classic mercs were originally hired by Redmond and Blutarch Mann in the 1930s to fight the Gravel War in New Mexico, an endlessly stalemated conflict where the two of them try to outlast the other to gain ownership of the land promised to them in their father's will. Presumably due to them aging, they were replaced by the more iconic Team Fortress 2 mercs in 1968.

Sometime before 1972, their team's Medic either died or retired, leaving the position empty.

Hunting the Administrator[]

In 1972, after Gray Mann acquired Mann Co. from Saxton Hale, he hired Team Fortress Classic to hunt down the Administrator and her cache of Australium - an incredibly rare mineral capable of granting immortality, among other things. During the six month interim between Gray Mann's acquisition of Mann Co. and then, TFC also hired the TF2 Medic to replace their former comrade.

The TFC Heavy began to track Miss Pauling, the Administrator's assistant, as she rounded up the rest of the now-unemployed TF2 mercs, hoping that they would be led straight to the Administrator. After pursuing them to the underwater country of New Zealand and killing the TF2 Sniper, Team Fortress Classic captured Miss Pauling alongside the TF2 Spy, TF2 Demoman, TF2 Pyro, TF2 Soldier, and Zhanna.

Betraying Gray Mann[]

Back at Gray Gravel Co. headquarters, the TFC Heavy has a conversation with Gray Mann about his goals, like why he even wants the Australium to begin with. Although Gray Mann doesn't outright say why, the TFC Heavy picks up on its immortality-giving properties and drags him out of his office.

Meanwhile, the TFC Pyro is left to torture the TF2 Soldier and Zhanna for information regarding the Administrator's whereabouts. While the TF2 Soldier resists for a while, his stupidity leads to him accidentally revealing that only Miss Pauling knows anything. Soon after, the TFC Heavy walks in with Gray Mann, encouraging the TFC Pyro to torture him before ripping the life extension machine out of his back, sentencing him to a slow death. The TFC Pyro then gleefully begins to sadistically torture the TF2 Soldier to death, before Zhanna cuts one of her hands off with a piece of scrap metal to escape from her handcuffs. She them stuffs one of the TFC Pyro's incendiary grenades into her suit, killing her.

In their shared cell, Miss Pauling and the TF2 Spy consider a joint suicide via cyanide molar to prevent being tortured, before the TFC Spy disguised as the TF2 Heavy bursts into the door. He tricks Miss Pauling into revealing the rendezvous coordinates with the Administrator, before revealing his disguise as the TFC Demoman walks in. Fortunately, the escaped TF2 Soldier and Zhanna kill the TFC Spy, before knocking the TFC Demoman to the floor, allowing the TF2 Spy to strangle him.

The TFC Heavy makes his way to the TF2 Medic's laboratory, where his discovers that the TF2 Sniper has been resurrected. After killing Archimedes, the Medic's favorite pet dove, and then assaulting the Medic himself, the TFC Heavy leaves due to the discovery that the captured mercs have killed three of his men. His final order to the TF2 Medic is to kill the TF2 Sniper, who escaped during their confrontation.

Team Fortress vs. Team Fortress[]

As revenge against the TF2 team, TFC Heavy sends an army of blood-draining drones to kill them. They manage to survive due to the TF2 Medic resurrecting those who died by just "putting their blood back in," and because the TF2 Demoman's alcohol addiction was so severe that his blood gave alcohol poisoning to the robots. The TF2 Scout and real TF2 Heavy then arrive, who had been in Australia looking for leftover Australium. Activated by the TFC Engineer, the remains of Gray Mann's robot army then begin to activate and attack the TF2 mercs.

Surrounded on all sides, the mercs are joined by Saxton Hale and his girlfriend, Maggie, who fall from the sky alongside a stockpile of Mann Co. weaponry. The TFC Sniper attempts to shoot the TF2 Heavy, but is interrupted by the TF2 Spy disguised as the TFC Engineer. The TFC Sniper sees through the disguise, shooting the TF2 Spy in the leg, and he leaves him alive with the intention of killing him slowly. The TF2 Sniper then kills the TFC Sniper with his own sniper rifle, having sneaked around them through the window. Meanwhile, the TF2 Pyro also ambushes the TFC Soldier and TFC Scout, dousing them in gasoline and blowing them to bits.

The TFC Heavy makes his way to the TF2 Medic, demanding that he attaches Gray Mann's life extender to him. The TF2 Medic stabs the TFC Heavy twice, but is overpowered and pinned to the ground. Luckily, the TF2 Heavy arrives and saves him, but he ends up getting shot to death by the TFC Heavy anyway. Enraged, the TF2 Heavy begins a fistfight with the TFC Heavy, one that he handily dominates because of his sheer anger. Things go well until the TFC Heavy stuffs Gray Mann's Australium-powered life extender into one of his open wounds, supercharging his abilities and putting him into a winning situation.

After the TF2 Medic quite literally outsmarts the Devil to free himself from Hell, he tricks the TFC Heavy into believing that he will give birth to a baby baboon, courtesy of a baboon uterus that had been implanted into him earlier. Using the TFC Heavy's confusion as an opportunity, the TF2 Heavy rips the Australium machine from his body, leaving him to slowly bleed out on the ground. After a speech from Miss Pauling, the TFC Heavy dies, the end of Team Fortress Classic. His corpse later does give birth to a baby baboon, though, which TF2 Medic takes for himself.

List of Members[]

  • TFC Heavy - Name unknown, the Heavy was the leader and most tactically-minded of Team Fortress Classic. Like the rest of TFC, he was a genuinely threatening mercenary, rather than a goofball like the TF2 mercs. He died after injuries sustained in a battle with the TF2 Heavy, bleeding out after Gray Mann's Australium machine was removed from his body.
  • TFC Engineer - Named 'Fred,' he was the team's tech whiz. Although he began as entirely human, by 1972 he was overweight and had replaced his legs with cybernetic ones. His death was never seen, although he was presumably killed off-panel by the TF2 Spy so he could disguise as him.
  • TFC Sniper - Named 'Virgil,' he was best friends with Fred, the TFC Engineer, to the point where he allowed him to replace his eyes with cybernetic ones. He had a completely different view of his job in comparison to the TF2 Sniper, relishing in making his enemies suffer instead of being cold and efficient. Shot in the head by the TF2 Sniper with his own gun.
  • TFC Pyro - Named 'Beatrice,' she was an expert in pyrotechnics and torture, taking extreme joy in killing the TF2 Soldier slowly. She was killed by his girlfriend, Zhanna, after being sneaked up on and having one of her own incendiary grenades stuffed into her suit.
  • TFC Scout - Named 'Greg,' he physically looked like the youngest member of the team. He considered deserting the battle entirely, dissenting from TFC with Ross, the TFC Soldier to create an orphanage. His dialogue can be interpreted in such a way where he appears pedophiliac. He was killed by the TF2 Pyro in a fiery explosion.
  • TFC Soldier - Named 'Ross,' he also considered dissenting alongside Greg, the TFC Scout in order to create an orphanage. He was covered in gasoline and blown up by the TF2 Pyro.
  • TFC Spy - Name unknown, he seemed to be one of the more efficient members of Team Fortress Classic, only killed because he was caught off-guard by Zhanna hitting him with her bloody cut-off right arm. He successfully fooled Miss Pauling and the TF2 Spy with his disguise of the TF2 Heavy, which is an impressive feat. He also conspired the TFC Demoman to kill Zhanna, TF2 Soldier, Miss Pauling, TF2 Spy, and TF2 Demoman. He was killed after the TF2 Soldier snapped his neck.
  • TFC Demoman - Named 'Greg,' He was given a job to kill Zhanna, TF2 Soldier, Miss Pauling, TF2 Spy, and TF2 Demoman. He also accomplished very little before being knocked to the ground by Zhanna and then strangled by the TF2 Spy with the handcuffs locked around his feet.
  • TFC Medic -Name unknown, having either retired or died before the events of the Team Fortress 2 comics.
  • TF2 Medic (Formerly) - Known only as 'Mr. Ludwig,' he served as the medic for the Team Fortress 2 mercenaries until he was left unemployed as a result of Gray Mann's acquisition of Mann Co. He was hired by Team Fortress Classic as a replacement for their lost Medic, and initially seemed happy, but defected back to his original team after the TFC Heavy abused him and killed Archimedes, his favorite pet dove.

Trivia[]

  • In his dying moments, the TFC Heavy reveals that Team Fortress Classic had hunted and killed several of the Administrator's best soldiers, listing "Echelon, Citadel, and Team Vanguard" as examples. What these other groups actually were is unknown.
  • While most of Team Fortress Classic is confirmed deceased by the finale of The Naked and the Dead, the fates of the TFC Medic and Engineer are left vague. TFC Medic is entirely absent from the comics, and the TFC Engineer's death is never shown on-panel.
    • It can be assumed that the TF2 Spy killed the TFC Engineer, though.
  • Many people have theorized that the TFC Engineer is the father of the TF2 Engineer. This is because of a picture that showcase someone resembling the TFC Engineer gifting the TF2 Engineer his first pair of goggles.
    • It should be noted that this image was released years before Team Fortress Classic appeared in the comics, and likely before it was even decided that the Team Fortress Classic game was canon.
    • In the comics themselves, there is no actual evidence presented that the TFC Engineer is in any way related to the TF2 Engineer. He doesn't physically resemble either Dell or Radigan Conagher, never shows any interest in the TF2 group, and no special importance is placed on him, to the point he may have been killed off-panel.
