Ok here's how the mission went.


Its night time but gently caress it, gotta do what you gotta do. Lucky we have all the flares in the world. Literally the game gives you unlimited flares during night ops. During the Alien turn we hear plasma fire.




Now we know who bought it. This fucks rannos22 up and she panics. Oh well. We spread out and move to contact, popping smoke.




He's in the house, I couldn't screenshot fast enough. If anyone knows a better way I can get good screenshots, like maybe recording when I play and going through the footage later for choice bits that would be great. I'm new to this whole LP thing. Its not exactly what I'm trying to do but its what I feel the thread turned into since I started posting screenshots. Cause lets face it, you wanna know what happens to the soldier named after you so least I can do is give you the details right?






Seshosho miraculous isn't killed outright when some Caesan comes around the corner, thats the grey dudes. I have him patch himself up, thats why I have my riflemen and assaults carry medkits. Rannos freaks out again because he's a busta. Its like she's never seen someone get shot before. Bobby goes up to the window and throws a grenade in. Oh yeah Kif missed a 95% shot gg.




Seshosho lives only to die. again. Goose goes around the corner and caps the guy who got him. Bobby's grenade killed the guy inside via bleedout. See what happens is everytime you get shot you have a chance to get a wound. If you don't heal the soldier immediately, take 5 damage. Have 2 wounds (only seen it happen once), take 10 damage each time. It goes both ways for humans and aliens. Kif breaks and fless and the rest of the squad moves on. He'll be back.





We found what we came here for. Also trouble. Goose tries to frag an alien but misses the frag. He also gets killed right after throwing the grenade to reaction fire, rip.


gotcha bitch



not loving around this time


oh hey that was easy, coast is clear right?


Not seen is the redshirt running in from that door to shoot watts the gently caress up. What is seen is one of our soldiers shooting him back afterwards on reaction fire with a burst. They use the appropriate fire mode. Up close its burst if they have the TUs or single shots. They keep firing until they are out of TUs.


We won again, rip those who died. Give me new names and I'll get you back in the rotation.


We are on the way back and as you can see UFOs are still active in the area.


One has set down south of dar es salaam, tanzania. Gonna send a fighter and the charlie to hopefully take it. I'll post the lineup in a minute.

Put me in game. Also how similar is this to old x-com? Do you get killed stepping off the skyranger?


Pretty sure I've gotten everyone, if I didn't quote you in this post post ITT again and I got you. I need to bring in more soldiers but after that I can name yall. Only 4 in the reserves atm.


Sending out the charlie with an escort because in the event the UFO takes off and I don't get a chance to slow down the time acceleration the poo poo will get shot down and that would be bad. We'd get the bird back after 72 hours since they recover shot down aircraft in this game but then it'd be out of action for a while, dead soldiers, yeah no.


come on don't gently caress me


gotcha bitch. It moved up north and then landed then we landed on it. This is going to be harder since they have a full crew but they won't be expecting us so it affects their deployment some what. We get the drop on them so I think it keeps them away from the drop zone or some poo poo. Shits gonna be rough though so good luck guys.

Dongslayer and Kif bag a alien thats here to greet us right off the Charlie.



There's something out there. And it ain't no man.


duders get into position


Shield saved bobby's life, he's also pinned down. I move the guys up.


Oh poo poo oh poo poo oh poo poo.




Bobby! Action Tortoise also bags the guy around the corner. Better Bobby then him right? Also the team of Kif and Hogrider bag the last alien hanging outside.


Aliens moving around inside.


Definitely not loving around.






sup also notice the flash bang on the floor in one of the pics.




Oh hey this is cool, gimme. Meanwhile Contra bags the redshirt and the team gets ready for the breach.


Action Tortose flashbangs them so they won't reaction fire anyone coming in and cost us even more soldiers. Not pictured is Kif going in with the alien plasma gun, firing a burst right next to a guy with 71% chance and failing to kill the guy. He did get a hit in which allowed a combination of contra shooting past him to wound the blue shirt and digits running up behind kif to finish the job. There's a 25% whenever you shoot with a xenonaut in the line of fire that the xenonaut will take the hit. Take that shot only when you have to, like in this case cause if I didn't kif would have died more likely than not. Even suppressed they have enough TU for one shot and that would kill one of us.



Heading back to beautiful Cyprus after another successful mission.

Sup we're bringing BoredDG into the squad since bobby bought it. Bobby btw get me a new name cause we already used smokey and I'm not feeling it. Have some more screenshots.



A bit of research on the newest type of UFO we've hit. Its the one with the main room and the back room where assholes like to pop out of the door and kill like one or two of your soldiers. There's another grounded UFO out there so we're sending the Charlie right back out. Here's the lineup for that job.







On that note, I'm gonna take a break till tommorow or later tonight. Tune in then!

Hey sup welcome back, we're just hear at some farm coming to check some poo poo out.

Contra shoots


He scores


Kif gets in on it as well


Oh poo poo these guys regenerate and he is pissed.





It takes digits, kif, and contra to put him down but he goes down. Meanwhile Dong Slayer is thinking about blowing up a wall.



I hope that was a good toss.



that'll do dong slayer, that'll do





Kif and Contra are hard at work putting bullets in aliens hearts and poo poo.


A section of the squad sweeps down south to make sure no one is in the treeline.


Holy poo poo.





Digits gets hit but lives. Digits and rannos shoot the guy back at point blank range. Digits loses it after nearly dying to a loving otherkin and runs for it.


suck my dick goy boy - Rannos the 22nd


Action Tortoise, quick with the medkit, quick with the shotgun. hi5 buddy



We've found the UFO.




And the enemy.



rip


loving ufo's in the way, i gotta get around it


FRAG OHHHHHH poo poo! (look closely at the circled object)



Kif tosses a grenade properly unlike DJ Borneo who is not long for this world. It isn't needed cause Action Tortoise is quick with the shotgun, just like I said he'd be.


I still don't understand how I can see an alien but not shoot him. gently caress UFOs. Ok lets move up a bit.



gently caress



Hey I'm still alive! - Last Words of DJ Borneo



Dong Slayer got hosed slayed, rip. His kids Dick Skinner, Cock Eater, and Butthole Surfer will miss him dearly.


rip


The other riflemen move up and put two shots into the lizardman but he's standing stronger than antwone fisher yo.




What the gently caress digits, where you going! Don't you love your country, I mean planet?!?!?!



Rannos the 22nd and Action Tortoise get him with the one two punch. That one was for Dong Slayer.


Welcome back to the war Digits.


Ok this is it, who knows whats in there. Are you ready?

Ok here are some miscellaneous screen shots and the next mission's lineup. Skip to the bottom if you wanna know whose up.




Cool, finally more soldiers. We were running thin there from all you fuckers taking plasma to the chest and poo poo like its your goddamn jobs. Oh wait it is. heh


oh poo poo no moneys


Now we know why kif couldn't hit poo poo with the alien gun.


Time to develop armor that'll SAVE LIVES. Also the scientist dude looks like the biggest douchebag. Someone get him some pussy poo poo, dude needs to loosen up.


And there you have it. A flak vest thats heat resistant or some poo poo.



I switched the research to the Alien Plasma Rifle since it would research faster. Gets us laser weapons. We're kinda due for a second lab though right about now.






So when you shoot down a UFO you have two options (if it was shotdown on land). You can send a squad over there to take it and sell off anything captured for parts or you can airstrike. Airstriking gives you less money but its risk free. Also when you have a shitton of UFOs all over and are shooting them down left and right, airstriking will keep you from burning out and saying gently caress this gay earth/gently caress this gay game. For the sake of seeing how many posters I can go through, I'm going to avoid doing that as much as possible unless we are strapped for cash and I don't want to waste lives while I'm waiting on say....that new body armor to roll out or laser weapons for the whole squad. Cause that sort of poo poo does matter alot.



Oh hey another UFO oh poo poo where'd all you fuckers come from.

The current lineup, it should be obvious who the new people are. We're going after a landed UFO for cash moneys and to train the new blood.



Got em.

Good night.

also on the same mission we threw a flashbang into the ufo and proceeded to riflebutt the gently caress out of one of the grey aliens till he passed out. this poor guy is now kept in isolation where the only visitors he has come to teabag him in his sleep and draw minidicks on his eyelids.
