I just got the UFO attack for the first time, and an Andromeda showed up for the first time. I don't have turrets and I save scummed a couple times, but I'm getting worked. Any tips? As I understand I can't progress unless I destroy the Spike that is cleverly out of grenade range and has 4 full mobs guarding it from turn 1

I just finished my first campaign runthrough. I had no mods It was a pretty great way to finish by having a ranger pop off a point blank flanked shotgun blast into the last enemy for a 100% critical chance for ~18 damage

I never found the mobile cover to be that useful, because anytime you'd use it the enemies would suddenly remember they packed a grenade with them

My favorite use of the MECs in EW was to rock-em sock-em punch dudes through walls. I wonder if it would throw off the balance too much to have a melee attack from a SPARK that grabs and squeezes an enemy in a big robo-bear hug, like the Vipers do to your dudes. It would be nice to have one other way besides freeze grenades and Stasis to lock down a single enemy on a turn and avoid return fire.

Iron Crowned posted:So, how about those snake tits? TBH I remember laughing about it when the original trailers were revealed, and when I actually played the game after buying it in a sale 6 months ago I had forgotten all about it and never noticed the snake tits in game. I was too busy baiting the vipers to tongue-grab my Bladestorm equipped ranger. I once had a chain in a single turn of 2 vipers tongue-grabbing that ranger, who instakilled the grabber with bladestorm taking no damage, then the next one grabbed the ranger and the same thing happened. That ranger won the "did most damage" award that round

It was far too late in the game when I realized the magic of Faceoff with bluescreen rounds against sectopods and codexes.

You gotta have Bradford use Reaper to mop up 15 baby vipers in a single turn on the Snek King mission.

Shens Last Gift adds the SPARK class, which is great. Anarchy's Children and Resistance Warrior is XCOM Barbies for customizing. Reinforcement Pack is a collection of Shen, Alien Hunters, and Anarchy's Children. That's the one to get

The civilians have terrible tactical awareness. Oh, let's duck behind this gas tank. Run towards the scary faced aliens. Lemme stand right in the middle here with no cover so you can't rescue me and stay in cover.

Kanos posted:I didn't even know that there were haters. Chimera Squad is a $20 game that released at $10 and plays like a $40 game. It's a really fun and complete experience, even if it doesn't have the length and depth of XCOM or XCOM 2. I just played it outta my backlog and it was a hoot.

There have been dozens of popular deckbuilding video games released in the last few years, but only Slay The Spire was good.

Mesadoram posted:Kind of surprised that Chimera Squad wasn't released on the Switch. Was just playing it and thought I would like it on the go. It does seem like a good title for the Switch and mobile platforms in general. Maybe we'll see it there someday. It's a bummer that so many good Switch ports are not released simultaneously with the other platforms.
