hey everyone, friendly neighborhood poster vapoursquid here i've dusted off the ol' steam inventory and reinstalled X-COM: UFO Defense a very very good game. i think someone's already done an xcom lets play in byob? but i'm nothing if not unoriginal and that was the new one and i hate new things + seriously the old one is better i mean just look at this: seriously there's no way to improve this game its already perfect so if you want to be a foot soldier who will eventually be horribly murdered by alien beings much stronger and smarter than you please just post itt there'll be about 8ish guys in the squad but there's a lot of dying in this game so the turnover is p high we'll also need to decide where to place our first top secret underground base where we do all our science and generally chill between missions. plz post suggestions for cool base locations and i'll pick the location i think is the best for a byob secret base. it can really be anywhere |

the year is 1999, and the earth is under attack! aliens have out of the blue began to raid our defenseless blue marble. mutilating cattle, killing civilians, probing butts something must be done! the most powerful nations of the world have come together to find a solution to this terror. but they cannot find anyone stupid enough to be willing to fight this enemy which clearly outguns anything humanity can throw up against them. in their desperation they have come to you, BYOB, and asked you to fight the alien menace. you guys being the dumbfucks you are said yes and now its your job to save the planet any way possible seriously though the byob uniform is weird as all gently caress jfc https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pX0Cm3N_n6k here's the intro video which is loving rad apparently all of the top diplomats of the world have the same lovely haircut idk this seems p sketchy for an international summit what's important though is they've handed you a briefcase with a shitton of $6 million to be exact. seems like they could've scraped up a little more for the ppl who are supposed to be saving the world but whatever be careful though if these guys feel like we're not doing a good job they'll slash our funding or maybe withdraw from the program alltogether, the flipside being that if they're happy they might be a bit more generous with the dough i've decided the logical place for a byob base is the chillest place on earth: Antarctica it might not be close to anything important or worth protecting but its a helluva a place to hang out with your posting pals before your imminent death this is it: home sweet home for the yobsquad, as you can see we've got two interceptors for shooting down ufo's as well as a skyranger to bring the squad to combat. there's a laboratory where the science team will be doing some mad science on poo poo we find and a workshop where we can macgyver some crazy gadgets together also a radar so we can actually see where the gently caress these ufo things are and some closetspace for all your guys' poo poo + the super cool yobsquad dorms where you guys smoke weed and play video games when you aren't having your heads blown off seems like we've got a pretty good setup here now all we have to do is wait for some aliens to show up so we can get to work |

the fine soldiers of yobsquad i've got 2 more guys + a tank on the way + some stun rods so we can catch us some live aliens to show off to our friends things seem p relaxed on our first day- well that was actually p fast lets bring this motherfucker down we send out Interceptor-1 to shoot this guy into the ice lol i kinda took too long taking screenshots instead of actually shooting at the ufo it starts to outrun me somehow the ufo turns around and flies past our interceptor without being well intercepted in anyway and heads north no no no come back welp we finally ran out of fuel and the ufo got away going north over the Himalayas first chance byob has to stop an alien incursion and the aliens completely fly past us without us being able to fire a shot not really proud of how this turned out lol |

I dont think we were ever shown a equip screen so id guess were all unarmed and shielding the tank from enemy zaps as its the only thing that can actually kill anything.. |
