Good luck mate! hopefully none of the headcrabs (I forgot the name, okay?!) mind control your troops! (If they get Jack Knight, we're better off without the sociopath, mercy kill him.)

Ulysses Meat reportin in.

Give me a autocanon with granades because that's how I roll it.

Base on antartica so we can stop that book from lovecraft from happening.

I hope.

We have chrysalids
If you think the new chrysalids are bad, just wait for the original ones, THOSE are terrible. First of all, THEY LOOK CREEPY AS BALLS, yes, they were inspired by the xenos, and just like the xenos THEY TAKE FOREVER TO KILL, YOUR AMMO IS LITERALLY MADE OF RUBBER AGAINST THEM

Yes, they turn people into zombies with ONE fucking hit. The zombies are kind of weak like the sectoids(in my first encounter with sectoids in this game, I lost 12 soldiers from a 15 soldier sqaud) and if you kill them they turn into more of those fucking things. Not even the dead can know peace from this evil

Alright! Arctic Table Fort is a go!

Also, gimme some names for these aircraft! Personally, I like Flying Coffin as my Skyranger name, but I'm up for suggestions.

Motion scanners for the love of Otto Zander.

Also, gimme some dank autocannon with granade ammo!

DernSquirrels^3 · Post by **DernSquirrels^3** » 29 Jan 2016, 17:34

Motion scanner being researched. Autocannons are unlocked for research and manufacturing once we research Advanced Firearms. Motion Detectors won't take that long.

I should get xenonaughts.

Basically an advanced version of this X-COM.

Ehhhh, Xenonauts is okay. I like that it got rid of the shitty ways 'tanks' (or HWPs as they're called) were handled. You know, they're actual tanks instead of dinky little vehicles. Menu theme really captured the feel of the game but all other music falls flat. Air combat is pretty good. The thing that I hate most about Xenonauts is the fact that there's no real good destruction, it's all small arms destruction. For example, the one pic I posted with the entire apartment block up in flames? That would never happen in Xenonauts.

LordLoko · Post by **LordLoko** » 29 Jan 2016, 18:15

I mean, xenonauts doesn't have soldier with ghostbusters suit and guile hairs.

Also, you can always try open xcom(http://openxcom.org/) which is basically a opensoruce remake(with support of MODS), you'll need the original copy of xcom tough, which can be bought on steam or downloaded on any abandonware site.

Tyler is in? Also, bought XCOM 2, good idea?

DernSquirrels^3 · Post by **DernSquirrels^3** » 29 Jan 2016, 18:47

Tyler is in. ALl names suggested so far have been added.

Also, planning to get XCOM 2, looks kickass. I pray for a Colonial Marines based mod.

The fucking Skyranger pilot in XCOM 2 even has a line that references the film

Is Tyler the red shirt of the group? It is important.

Edit: Redshirt in this context being extremely unlucky, yet somehow surviving through it all.

Yup. Read the OP for the list. Also, if I fail this base defense (THERE'S STILL THREE CYBERDISCS LEFT RARRRRRRAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHH) I'm gonna tweak the chances for base defense mission probability. I shit you not, I got this base defense on the TENTH OF JANUARY, THE FIRST MONTH. This is ridiculous, it's only on Veteran.

Maybe lower difficulty a bit,it may happen again,the base attack I mean

Also is there a chance you make videos of this? It would be cooler instead of the pics

Wow, already the first run ended so quick, that base defense was truly ridiclous...RIP.

I also apparently just now realised i never submitted a name...darn
