Let's Play X-COM Long War

[Rigel]

Lets have the engineers put a bunch of fictional AIs in the tanks!

Cortana, her, Mr. Gutsy from fallout...

Actually, turn the first alloy tank into an iTank, controlled by Siri.

A very Long War

I rushed for lasers, I guess. If thats the correct term.

I hope my plead for Carapace armor has not gone unheard.

Also Rigel, I regret to inform you that Rigel has died fighting aliens in this update. The SHIV he's operating, anyways.



Aliens were abducting people on a dam, and Elvis Presley tagged along. She didn't last long, though.



Immediately after landing, a random plasma bolt came out of nowhere and hit her in the face.



Heavy Weapons Guy: MOAR DAKKA! BABMABMABAMBAMBAMBAMBAM!



Whiskey Tango Foxtrot: Even the Seekers are getting in on the partying!



Sniopeh GoodJob: Holy Jesus! Pissed off Alien Green Hulks!



Oddly enough, a week passed without any UFOs or abductions. One week of random tomfoolery in the X-COM base, such as..... "Creative" uses of duct tape or tasing a Rookie and throwing him into the interrogation chamber.



Welp.



That was easy. Too easy. Only death suffered was Rigel's tank.



Git Gud performed so well on this next operation that she was promoted to Officer.



Command decides to autopsy the Chryssalid that's been causing all the zombie apocalypses.



420 Memes gets blasted in the groin just like everyone else in the "(insert number here) Memes" family. Poor kid.

[the hacker]

That was a pretty dam good mission.

Terrorism and espionage

RASL, Highway Robbery, Krieger, Sniopeh GoodJob, Dreams of Cheese, Mr. Gutsy(TANK AI) attending.



Highway Robbery: Damn Mutons! Rush them and kill them all!



Highway Robbery: When is Command going to give us weapons that can hit the broad side of a godamn planet?



Mr. Gutsy: ERROR: COMMIE BASTARD IS STILL STANDING. REQUESTING BACKUP.





Everyone, meet our newest recruit. Paul "Tank" Sawyer. He's a gift from the Brits.

NOTE:Paul Sawyer can and will be renamed. Suggest a name.


We finally come face to face with the EXALT terrorists.


Wei Shen, Van Doorn, handicap Convention, Lee Hanson attending the operation.
Covert Operative: Rigel


Rigel: Gonna beat some godamn terrorists to death....


Lee Hanson: Footsteps! Hostiles!


handicap Convention: loving Terrorists!
Wei Shen: Whoever these guys are, they aren't aliens. This will be easy.

*CHOOM*








Rigel: Going to hack these guys so hard they won't be able to open a developer console!



Rigel: Help.



Rigel: Running to next relay!



Terrorist 1: How many Sectoid virgins will we get in heaven if we kill atleast one of these guys?
Terrorist 2: Sssh! X-COM can hear us!



Rigel: I got the data, now let's get out!


*BLAMBLAMBLAM*
Rigel: BLARGH.
One quickload later




handicap Convention: Goodnight!



*BZZZZZZT*

Terrorist 1: You'll never take me alive, X-COM filth!



Terrorist 1: I DIE WITH HONOR!
handicap Convention: Put it down! Think of your family!


Terrorist 1: Ethereal...... Ackbar.........


handicap Convention: EXALT is willing to go to extreme measures to avoid being taken alive? Do they already know who Dr. Vahlen is?



Today is your lucky day, Talia. Time for some espionage.



Sniopeh GoodJob is our first Gene-Modded soldier.






Anyone have any last words?

Next Update: Chryssalid Rape Fest 2 Zombie Apocalypse

[the hacker]

Was just about to ask what happened to Talia.

[Rigel]

Wait, EXALT commit Self Delete when stunned? Dark.

Anyway, a second tank is in order. Maybe.

This time it could have lasers! Or alloy plating! Or something...

Care to fill us in with what resources and technologies you have? We're kind of in the dark here.

[Dreams_Of_Cheese]

Op do you plan on starting a new campaign for b15 or are you gonna ride this one out

Resource/Tech so far I can remember right away: Lasers, Gene Labs

These screenshots speak better than I do

Op do you plan on starting a new campaign for b15 or are you gonna ride this one out

Ride it out, B15 is probably going to be buggy as forget and/or have a ton of BS that will need to be nerfed/patched/etc.



More to Site Recon than just the Pissalids.



Not risking upgrading to B15 since I'll have to start a new game and rescue Van Doorn all over again. I'll also have to add in the previous soldiers (Talia/Lee Hanson/Wilson/Dr. Krieger, the Nigerian Cunt/Protile/etc) again.



Some SHIV changes are good, others are bad.




Also I'm editing the stats of EXALT soldiers to balance them the way I want it AND savescumming the hell out of Site Recon. Nevermind, didn't need to do that. Gave everyone sawn-off shotguns and brought Rocket Launchers.

Operation Flying Tears

Today X-COM discovered that Chryssalids could potentially infect the entire world through sneakier, less blunt ways.


Soldiers attending: SIRI(Tank AI), Wilson(Tank Operator), Paul Sawyer, some nameless assault class soldier, Revolver Rookie, Carter


Carter: Good lord, this is creepy. Feels like something out of H.P Lovecraft.


Wilson: ZOMBIES! Where there are zombies, that means CHRYSSALIDS!


the assault class soldier that has no name, pictured above: Sawed off shotguns solve everything!


Wilson: Welp, zerg rush!


Carter and Sawyer: ROCKETS AWAY!


Revolver Rookie: Grenade.
Wilson: FINISH THEM!


Siri: ERROR: This Apple ITank 6 is out of Time Units.


Siri: ERROR: SIRI NOT AVALIBLE-----.


Carter: They're incubating the dead sharks! The Chryssalids are actually intelligent after all!


Revolver Rookie: That's going to be a problem....
Wilson: Holy stuff! That whale is giving birth to Chryssalids!
Carter: Bradford! We need air support, NOW!


Wilson: Everyone run! This entire town can forget right off!


Wilson: We've really done it now! Who should I trip to distract the Chryssalids? They're everywhere!


Carter: Almost there to the Skyranger! The airstrike is coming in two minutes!


Wilson: MOTHER OF GOD. Revolver Rookie, please step out of the Skyranger and distract them, will you?


Wilson: When is the commander going to take his head out of his ass and buy some more godamn SHIVs? Or at the very least, make them more durable?



Anyone got a better name for Paul Sawyer and that random assault class trooper?

Next Update: Return of the Mutons and more "FUn" with EXALT

[Dreams_Of_Cheese]
