X-COM LET'S PLAY ALERT GO

The most venerable and repeatable of all Let's Plays!

Recruit me, oh god recruit me.  As time honored as the rookie+grenade tactic is, I have to request that you give me an HE loaded autocannon as a fire-support dude.  Vitally useful in all circumstances until you start fighting snakemen a lot.

i would take Tom King, the brother of Virgil King, anyway the King familie is known about their tactical skills, they are one of the best shuters around, They alway bring with them the best awaylabel rifle, with two repleace ammo, and an explosive (or alien grenade later.) for retreating purpuse. They don't tend to rush on the aliens (MU's for reacting should always rest at the end of moving ... if you shut just do it all ...)
Normaly the whole familie is in military dutie, and there should be at least one all the time around.(if not please rename one soliders family name with King)
Is sciantific leaders ask their opignon they prefer researches in this order:
armors
rifles
alien discections (becouse they shell be better known)

Funny story here. The floater walkedfloated right on by the two terrified operatives and into the engine, apparently uninterested in a fight. The floater behind him then shot and killed the Cerej-- hey wait, I have two Cerejs. Mother of fuck. Then the guy in the engine executed the peaceful floater.

(http://i51.photobucket.com/albums/f357/swallis21/xcom52.png)
The floater shrugs off the explosive projectile. Aqizzar blocks the way for any further help. Mohrab is screwed.

However, the floater once again is very nice and goes up the elevator rather than kill Mohrab dead. However, when Mohrab follows to make friends, the floater shoots her.

Or if I do have to go I'm an officer now!  Other people have to go first in the city!

EDIT:  Besides, Aquizzar is carrying enough explosives to level the city.  I think blowing up a wall is a MUCH more attractive option than going through a door that killer crabs could be hiding behind.

Currently that's kind of my thing.  But don't worry.  I'm sure you'll get a chance soon.

Squeegy, I'd like to repeat my suggestion of leveling city buildings instead of going through the doors.  Hot searing plasma I okay with.  Being raped by a freaky alien crab, not so much.

An unnamed guy downs it. Eventually.

rickvoid's a crack shot with his laser. Got this guy from far away on his first shot.

From there it was just killing three guys in the UFO. A nice, uneventful change of pace. We did lose a guy though.

Squeegy, what tactics do you use for UFO? I am thinking about restarting it.

Usually I move everybody in groups of 2-3. One person rounds corners while the others prepare for backup. If I can help it no one moves alone. Other than that I just spread out and search everything.

Seconding the idea to research and mass-manufacture motion detectors.
Hopefully we'll get a Heavy Plasma soon so we can research those and then get +Plasma Beams+.

Offense is greater than defense!  Destroy the invaders!

Everyone steps outside, but only some people go inside UFOs, unless they're big. For small scouts, I have a four-person team.

I was inspired to play UFO: Enemy Unknown again(European version) by this thread. Unfortunately I suck at it, even at beginner level. Although it's hardly my fault the skyranger's door opened straight into the face of two disc-thingies(whose name I forget) and a sectoid.

Ragnar gets the first laser weapons.

(http://i51.photobucket.com/albums/f357/swallis21/xcom248.png)
Luckily this guy missed his shot

(http://i51.photobucket.com/albums/f357/swallis21/xcom249.png)
Brick proves his worth (plus he's the only rocket guy so far who has all his TU).

(http://i51.photobucket.com/albums/f357/swallis21/xcom250.png)
And then, of course, he goes and gets shot. Unfortunately, he's no Cerej.

(http://i51.photobucket.com/albums/f357/swallis21/xcom251.png)
Ragnar takes him down.

(http://i51.photobucket.com/albums/f357/swallis21/xcom252.png)

That base needs redesigning as soon as possible comrade Squeegy, it's a DEATHTRAP. Your men could be attacked from all sides during an assault.

Also please remember that ailen captures are better off waiting till you know what you need out of the ailens.

I also recommend replacing the cannon tank as quick as possible, rocket tanks are far more effective and easier on restocking.

Hmm.  Now I wonder if I should request staying at the base until you get me some power armor.  On the one hand, it's rather thematic.  On the other hand, that gives me no chances at glory.

Send me back on the Skyranger as soon as I recover, please!

 Both of which must employ some form of shielding to be effective at all. And one is working on plain magic. You know who she is.

 From what I can see, the X-Com suits use good 'ol metal, ceramics and other hard, non-energy-shields things.

 Unless I'm horribly mistaken.

Power suits in X-Com use Elerium-115 as a power source (hence power suit) and are made of alien alloys, as far as I know.

Considering I used to think Samos was a man (boy, did that come as a shock) and I don't really consider the master chief sexy, that could be considered evidince that they can't.

Although Samos is fine without the suit.

Those aren't Power Suits. Samus uses Chozo Armor or whatever (I don't remember, I haven't played in ages. <_<) and Master Chief first, is not sexy, and second, is in Mjolnir Mk Whatever Armor, not a Power Suit.

This is a Power Suit:

Power suits in X-Com use Elerium-115 as a power source (hence power suit) and are made of alien alloys, as far as I know.
The Alien Alloys are the armor, the Elerium is so you can actually move in it.

Well, Men of the Match awards to Cerej, for continuing his reign of awesome across realities, and Ragnar, for one-shoting a cyberdisk on the first try.  And holy balls what an awful, awesome way to land on a terror mission.

And make sure you know who actually has the muscles to use those heavy weapons mate.

Bug-Exploit Protip for getting to Terror Missions: so long as at least one craft is targeted to a mission site, it will persist forever.  If you juggle Interceptors and the Skyranger, a terror site will wait days for you to get around to it.

Again, what could be more awesome than a gun that makes rapid fire explosions?  I keep using a couple even after I get heavy plasmas, since they're still useful for clearing cover without wasting more valuable ammo.
