Undefined Fantastic Object: Enemy Unknown (Let's Play X-COM!)
Bardiche:
You should apply the patch to play on harder difficulties. :V It's more fun with a 65% casualty rate on average!
X-COM is good. More is even better. It has been an interesting read so far.

With the resources we obtained from the raid on the alien base, we're finally able to start work on the Firestorm craft. We're still keeping the older interceptors around, as the Firestorm's reliance on Elerium makes it unreliable for long aerial patrols.
We've finished retrofitting our interceptors with plasma beams. The now-obsolete Avalanches have been sold off, no longer taking up space in our storage facilities.
We were able to recover a small-sized craft; while the engine had been completely destroyed, the rest of the ship was intact.
Unfortunately, Zengar was severely wounded during this operation. His recovery will take roughly two months. Looking over his personnel file, I had no idea his shooting skill had improved to the point where it was on par with that of Kusanagi and Chaore; if a new colonel becomes necessary, I wouldn't be surpised to see Zengar promoted.
In the meantime, he's been brought to Savannah, where he will be heading up a new combat team when he recovers. The personnel stationed there earlier have been brought to Firstlight to train under Kusanagi and Chaore.
Interrogation of an alien navigator has netted us some very useful results.
First, we have obtained data confirming that the alien bases do rely on supply ships in order to remain operational. Locating and tracking these supply shipments should allow us to locate more lien bases.
Second, we've obtained data on the alien communication frequencies. This information means we can intercept and decode alien transmissions, and determine the nature of alien operations on Earth at any given time.
Tamer Anode/Cathode:
Since bringing down the alien outpost in the US, we've been conducting patrols to locate other bases. We assume there is one in Canada following their pact, but nothing has turned up so far.
We've sent an interceptor to Savannah from Firstlight, giving us slightly larger operational range.
The recovery team is going to be busy for the next little while. A medium-size craft has landed in Central America, while another ship was shot down over Cuba. We're going to use this opportunity to train the Savannah personnel.
We're going after the medium ship first.
Hanzo K.:
Haha!
Gentlemen, I love my new tank.
It really gets the job done!
Hmm...but they'll need names won't they comrade?
Hmm.......Perhaps.....nah, that one's too cheesy.
But as TV Tropes says, "Blessed Are The Cheesemakers".....but who cares about tropes right now? We've got invaders to waste!
Tamer Anode/Cathode:
So yeah, it looks like this is going to be on indefinite hiatus while I'm busy with things like "college" and "social life". Sorry.
