Title: X-COM Genesis Evangelion -- A Poorly Thought-Out X-COM LP!
Post by: CJ1145 on April 21, 2011, 10:38:10 pm

CHAPTER 1: STITCHES AND SPACE JETS

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

X-COM, they called it. A defense program set up by the nations of the Earth to fend off some sort of alien invasion. They feared that, worst-case scenario, a full-scale invasion could devastate the planet and end up with everybody enslaved under a new regime. Lucky them.

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

My name is Gendo Ikari. I'm not supposed to be here. But apparently someone decided these idiots couldn't run the show themselves, so they plucked me from beyond to have me try and corral this bunch of headless chickens into a cohesive unit. I don't quite understand how they stitched my legs back on, but I'm grateful.

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

They asked me what my skill level was, as far as military command went. Apparently I was in need of a grade-school level refresher course. I picked Superhuman, more out of spite for these thickheaded idiots than confidence in my own abilities. Not that I'm lacking.

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

After they were finished with the briefing a couple of techies took me up in a jet to orbit the planet. They told me to pick a good spot for a base.

(http://oi53.tinypic.com/149qumc.jpg): Now, I'm not trying to question your judgment or anything, but is there any reason we had to take a jet trip up here instead of using Google Earth? Or, you know, a map?

(http://archives.bulbagarden.net/media/upload/7/7a/S2_Scientist.png): Mr. Ikari, X-COM is the most scientifically advanced group in mankind's history! Take advantage of it! Why look at a map when you could fly a jet into space?

(http://oi53.tinypic.com/149qumc.jpg): I'm not going to answer that. It would just encourage you.

So here I am, staring at the Earth from on high, trying to find a suitable base. I'm open to suggestions.

Name: Codecimal the Prolonged
Gender: Male
Preferred Equipment: (Rotate between these each incarnation) Most accurate, incendiary, Pistol x2.
Preferred Class: (Again, rotate) Sniper, Pyro, Scout
Important Stats: (;s separate incarnations) FA, Reactions, bravery, strength; FA, Strength; Reactions, TU, bravery
Bio: Due to an accident involving a model railgun, a jet engine, and some concentrated Carbon, Codecimal regenerates extremely quickly after death, resulting in what was first called "Jesus Syndrome", but now "Carbon Curse", due to the extreme morbidity of it all, which makes him in effect revive shortly after death. At first, the recovery was all over the place, making some lives extremely retarded, and others positively genius, but around the 37th time, it fell into a standard rotation of three mindsets. Currently, he has reached his 53rd life, and is in the first of his states, nicknamed "Dead Eye" by his monitoring physicians, where he has the most common sense, and also extreme muscular control, which lets him be very precise with his otherwise shoddy rifle. The next in the set is "Firestar" which translates to a paranoid schizophrenic who has a taste for pyromania. Last, is "Guido", characterized by utter douchebaggery, a fake Italian accent, slicked back hair, and an overblown sense of his own abilities, so he is usually the first to barge into a party.

Huh. I'm actually seeing one of these starting. Anyway, I think Gendo would go with what he knows. Since he doesn't have ancient prophetic scrolls telling him where to build his base, he'll build it in Tokyo because it worked last time.

Also, since he's a bastard one of the first eight soldiers has to be Shinji. Let's see how quickly the abusive parenting leads to tragedy.

Sounds like a plan to me.

I'll join but am drawing a total blank for characters right now. Sure they'll be dead in ten minutes anyway, but that's no excuse for shoddy... whatever you'd call that.

Profile Pic: (http://lparchive.org/Princess-Maker-2/Update%2022/img-13.jpg)
Name: Lizzy Shinkicker Lucifon (Ikari)
Gender: Female
Weapon: Plasma and Alien 'nades.
Bio: Princess of the Underworld, raised by dear old dad (and a bunch of on-lookers it seems in his past life), and apparently the forces of hell and an unholy grail. Hell got boring, so I've decided on extraterrestrial genocide. I think Dad would be proud; plus, if our past experiences are something to go by, I can't die, I'll just wake back up in home and join back at a later time if I'm up to it. Seeing as my magic seems to be a bit of overkill, I guess I can nerf my power down a bit with some alien technology. Then again, I still think I'm going easy on them.

Addendum: Why am I out of place time-wise and still looking young? IMMORTALITY BITCHES!!!! Oh yeah, Hi Dad! How's the next life going? It's been roughly 780-odd years since I last seen your scheming face. Last life a drunken swordsman, and nowadays an XCOM Overseer? If your past life is anything go by, you might run this undergound. Seeing as I own the underground, I can use the extra company.

FAKEEDIT:
Somebody had to do it.

CHAPTER 2: SEALES and Shinjis

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Thankfully, some voices in my head have informed me that the best strategic location will be the tip of Western Africa. That's all well and good. The rest of the world can burn in extraterrestrial fire, but at least we'll save some giraffes.

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

I was surprised when the scientists told me that the base... already came with a name.

(http://oi53.tinypic.com/149qumc.jpg): *sigh* All right, I'll bite. Which one of you misspelled SEELE?

(http://archives.bulbagarden.net/media/upload/7/7a/S2_Scientist.png): Um, I named the base sir, why do you-- *whap* YEEARGH! Oh God, my nose is bleeding!

(http://oi53.tinypic.com/149qumc.jpg): Oh, sorry, I was trying to break it. I'll do better next time.

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

After I convinced them that I was quite finished with the space jet (which they apparently call a Skyranger) I was brought down into this little hellhole. For a state-of-the-art multinational alien defense force, X-COM is just about the shittiest example I can think of. They asked me if I wanted to take a look at the dissection lab. Thinking fast, I fled into my office to interview the new recruits for my ground forces.

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

My first victim.

(http://oi53.tinypic.com/149qumc.jpg): So, Mr... Decimal, is it?

(http://oi51.tinypic.com/x38ym9.jpg): Codecimal, the Prolonged.

(http://oi53.tinypic.com/149qumc.jpg): Right, that. So Mr. Decimal, why are you here at X-COM?

(http://oi51.tinypic.com/x38ym9.jpg): Aliens need their heads picked off, and I'm the best at it.

(http://oi53.tinypic.com/149qumc.jpg): At... picking alien heads? Is that a thing?

(http://oi51.tinypic.com/x38ym9.jpg): Indeed it is, sir. And I'm the best.

(http://oi53.tinypic.com/149qumc.jpg): ... Welcome aboard.

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

What. The hell. Is this. This one's got some questions to answer.

(http://oi53.tinypic.com/149qumc.jpg): All right kid, I'll bite, why do you have name backwa...rds...

(http://oi55.tinypic.com/a3gmrn.jpg): Brother? Is it really you?!

(http://oi53.tinypic.com/149qumc.jpg): ...What?

(http://oi55.tinypic.com/a3gmrn.jpg): Do you really not recognize me? It's me, your long-lost little sister Ikari Gendo!

(http://oi53.tinypic.com/149qumc.jpg): Asuka, what the hell are you doing here?

(http://oi55.tinypic.com/a3gmrn.jpg): Who's this "Asuka"? I've never heard of her before, but she sounds quite charming!

(http://oi53.tinypic.com/149qumc.jpg): I... I... just get out of my office, Asuka.

(http://oi55.tinypic.com/a3gmrn.jpg): Ikari.

(http://oi53.tinypic.com/149qumc.jpg): Fine, Ikari, whatever, just go!

Well, with that ordeal done I wonder what other blasts from the past they have in store for me.

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

No. No no no no. I sent that little runt to fight before, and I got my fucking torso bitten off, I'm not dumb enough to do that to my own son twice! Get Shinji out of here, send him home, I'm not doing this!

(http://archives.bulbagarden.net/media/upload/7/7a/S2_Scientist.png): Okay, is he out of earshot? Guys, Shinji is one of the most promising fighters we've ever even SEEN! We're keeping him, just try not to clue Director Ikari in, all right?

Well, first Asuka and now Shinji. Are there just no competent fighters for them to use in this timeline? Well, no matter who they choose it couldn't be less insane than--

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

(http://lparchive.org/Princess-Maker-2/Update%2022/img-13.jpg): Hi Dad!

(http://oi53.tinypic.com/149qumc.jpg): ... Lizzy?

(http://lparchive.org/Princess-Maker-2/Update%2022/img-13.jpg): I heard you might need some help fighting aliens, so I came!

(http://oi53.tinypic.com/149qumc.jpg): Uh-- *thud*

(http://lparchive.org/Princess-Maker-2/Update%2022/img-13.jpg): Daddy? Why did you faint?

Okay, these scientists are bastards. Did they recruit my entire family to fight the alien menace? After some very convincing arguments, in the form of shattered noses, they agreed not to summon up anyone else I knew. I sat back down and tried to regain my composure to interview the last few recruits.

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Well, this looks promising.

(http://oi53.tinypic.com/149qumc.jpg): So, Mr. Scout, what can you bring to battlefield that no one else can?

(http://oi54.tinypic.com/t89oy9.jpg): I'm gonna headbutt ya!

(http://oi53.tinypic.com/149qumc.jpg): Wait, what? *thud* Ah, damn it! My nose! Is this what I've been doing to people?!

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Not much to say about this interview, the applicant looks combat-ready. But they kept muttering something about a "second M", as if they were disappointed. Warrants further investigation.

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

(http://oi53.tinypic.com/149qumc.jpg): So Mr. KHARN, it says here on your bio that--

(http://oi52.tinypic.com/2po3z8l.jpg): I AM A MAN!

(http://oi53.tinypic.com/149qumc.jpg): Yes, I was just getting to that. So, how are you going to combat this alien menace?

(http://oi52.tinypic.com/2po3z8l.jpg): WITH GUNS! REALLY REALLY BIG GUUUUUUUNS! DAKKADAKKADAKKDAKKDAKKA--

(http://oi53.tinypic.com/149qumc.jpg): All right, yes, I understand you KHARN, you're on the team. We could always use another meat shield.

There was supposed to be another interview that day, but I'm fairly certain there was a mix-up in the recruitment process.

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

(http://oi53.tinypic.com/149qumc.jpg): So, Ms... Stitch, is it?

(http://oi51.tinypic.com/hs6ct0.jpg): Aaaah, chipikiwaba!

(http://oi53.tinypic.com/149qumc.jpg): Pardon me miss, I didn't quite catch that?

(http://oi51.tinypic.com/hs6ct0.jpg): Miki-miki nakachibiwakababa! Aaaaaaa-ha-hahahahaha!!!! *smash*

(http://oi53.tinypic.com/149qumc.jpg): That vase was priceless!

After a long, and very painful process, the fake Stitch was removed from my office, and we found the real applicant. Some boring girl, I won't go into details at the moment.

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

So here we are at, ugh, SEALE HQ. We're low on funds, low on equipment, low on manpower, low on brainpower, and there's an enemy invasion fleet on its way to Earth. What now?

Lizzy's stats seem quite appropriate. Already liking the LP so far. I'm expecting much fun in the first missions.

EDIT:
50 Brave, sounds just about right. And she can throw one hell of a fireball, she can throw grenades like nobody's business. Add to it her godlike health levels. I won't be too surprised if her PSI levels are through the roof.

CHAPTER 3: Sectoids and Scouts

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

One of the voices in my head kindly informed me that I should get to work on laser weapons. I have to admit I was a little shocked that they had the ability to bring people back from the dead, yet a simple laser was beyond their comprehension. Still, I set all our researchers onto the task, only to find out we only had ten of the things. What kind of cheap-ass organization were they running here? I sent out an order for ten new researchers to join our current crop, as well as four new soldiers to augment our pathetic garrison here at SEALE HQ.

I planned to take the rest of the day off, maybe go buy Lizzy some new battle armor, until a blaring klaxon interrupted me. The same scientist that's been hounding me since the start burst into my room. Bastard didn't even knock.

(http://oi53.tinypic.com/149qumc.jpg): What the hell is that noise, Quibble?!

(http://archives.bulbagarden.net/media/upload/7/7a/S2_Scientist.png): Uh, sir, my name's Francis--

(http://oi53.tinypic.com/149qumc.jpg): NOT IMPORTANT, QUIBBLE! THE NOISE!

(http://archives.bulbagarden.net/media/upload/7/7a/S2_Scientist.png): Oh, right! No need to worry, sir, that's our UFO detection alarm. Come on!

Quibble took me into the main control room, where a bunch of men and women in red shirts were working at computer terminals.

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

A monitor at the front of the room had this image displayed. Quibble asked me what I wanted to do. I smacked him for his stupidity and ordered him to launch our Interceptor at him.

The jet found the UFO about the same place it had been spotted, and opened fire.

After the first missile the thing went down. These weren't Angels, I knew that much. All our boys jumped into the Skyranger and raided the ship.

Apparently, that was the only alien (Stitch decided to call it a Sectoid) left alive on the ship. We recovered it without resistance after that, and even found some strange alloy our techies might be able to incorporate.

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

For her bravery on the field, Stitch has been promoted to Sergeant, leading half of the team. Simimura has been likewise, mostly because he kind of reminds me of this cartoon I used to watch. I greeted them all personally to congratulate them on a job well done, and to collect my orange from Shinji. Now they're off resting, waiting for the new batch of recruits while I write this report. I wonder what kind of nutjobs we'll collect this time...

(http://lparchive.org/Princess-Maker-2/Update%2022/img-20.jpg): Still, it's odd that despite the fact I can easily destroy things with my mind, I'm still told to stay behind. Oh well. Maybe he doesn't want me to deal with the small fry. If I know how these things go, the numbers will only get thicker. The real question is, will that be in aliens or XCOM corpses? Already saw one guy go down pretty quickly, but I have a feeling we'll be seeing him again.

EDIT EDIT EDIT:

I have a lot of volunteer work to get done today, so no update for a good 10 hours, as I'll be busy playing and uploading. I've decided to split my work, and use imgur for single-update mission images, and keep tinypic for base update screenshots and character portraits.

CHAPTER 4: Silence and Spitting

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

As soon as the team made it back I put them straight to work. Apparently this base was even more under-equipped than I'd been lead to believe. Despite being an organization dedicated to fighting and studying aliens, they didn't have a place to put the damn corpses! And in the event they were discovered, they had no means of fighting off an aerial assault. I remedied this by ordering an alien containment room and a missile defense system constructed. I also requisitioned a larger radar system.

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Also, I moved all of our spare equipment onto the Skyranger, because SOMEONE couldn't live without their auto-cannon... Shinji.

(http://oi55.tinypic.com/optzxv.jpg): Wait, wha--

MOVING ON.

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

I realized that since Scout was now fertilizer out in some ditch, we were low on manpower. So I've ordered a new batch of recruits, along with a tank for the heavy-duty missions.

The night came...

And it passed. Not a single UFO the entire night. Nice going, voices in my head. Great spot to set up a secret base.

*BOOM*

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

After a long and grueling night of hunting, we encountered the Sectoid ship and assaulted it with our full strength. Pat the Androgynous was lost in the attack. Unfortunately, the grenade we tossed in vaporized one of the Sectoids along with Pat's body, so we were unable to study the former and bury the latter. However, we've acquired many useful materials which we might be able to study further. Maybe even reverse-engineer them into useable weapons? Only time will tell.

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

McCrea's freak-out during the grenade incident tells me he's not ready for command of the whole team, just yet. Instead that honor goes to Stitch, who single-handedly prevented our first legitimate disaster with orders alone. I've also promoted the new man Johnathan to replace her, since he was the one to off the last two aliens, and was indirectly responsible for the death of the third.

Now that the squad is back, it's time to start thinking about research. Laser weapons, alien tech, medkits, they're all things we need. I just wonder if we'll get them in time to fight off the next wave of these freaks.

Gendo logging off, until next time.

Quote from: Simon's Journal

It has been three weeks since I arrived in this reality, having crossed over some time after leaving my friends after the defeat of the anti-spiral. Somehow, when I crossed over, I was returned to my body as of the beginning of my journey, though I seem to retain my memories. I have managed to find the vehicle which Lagann has been transformed into (odd occurrence, that. It seems that ganmen are not a common sight here.) I have found that they are under attack from an alien species, and as such I have attempted to sign up for service with the organization fighting them, but... it seems that my body may be a problem here.

But something important has happened. There is another here that can do the same sort of things that I can. I will have to have a conversation with her at some point.

Also, comic books are nowhere to be found. Kharn will be unable to do a video review of One More Day for a while.

Kharn's teammates are okay. Zombie boy tried to eat Kharns eyes, but he apologized and wen on his way. Wimpy boy shin-gee is wimpy. Kharn gonna help him bulk up. Aussie man is a chill dude. Was gonna play poker but we got shut down. Also little Boy and girl. Boy is mole, good digger but terrible table manners. Also broke Kharn's skull-cap and drinking cup, but they weren't real bone so kharn forgave him. Little girl is scary with a god complex. Also bloodhirsty and very Failbaddon temperment. Kharn avoids her when possible.

That all for now. Kharn gonna use astro turph and alien spheres to make a putt-putt course in interceptor 2's hangar. Kharn also have some contraband for sale.

If Boss or Gendo see this and try to punish Kharn for putt putt or capitolism, kharn have pics of that night and will release them to Internet if mildly irritated

kharn don't have comic to burn, so kharn burns an alien corpse instead
*dead alien being incinerated via Molotov cocktail picture here*

Kharn also like to point out that Kharn's cousin will be arriving next wave of recruits. Kharn believes her quite nuts, but oddly endearing company.

I'll probably stick with firing drills at things for now.

Back in my days, we didn't need anything to channel our willpower through. At least, that's what I think. Although there is this odd thing called "MP" that sounds like a limit or something. I think I broke that limit before back then when I killed the God of War. That guy's face looks similar to the little armor dude with 2 faces you made.

Got me an industrial batch. Got it confused with real embalming fluid, but it still got the job done. On the barrel was some sort of hazard marking, and something that says "16 million scovilles"; whatever that's supposed to mean. Makes me wonder why Greg was screaming after being healed and is almost never phased by my fire attacks.

You might want to install XComUtil (http://www.bladefirelight.com/) to fix the DOS version difficulty bug, that makes all games revert to beginner after the first mission. Only three aliens on a UFO and sectoids missing isn't likely to happen on Superhuman. You could also continue on the lowest difficulty level, the game is hard enough to inexperienced players as it is.

CHAPTER 6: Shifting Situations

I feel I need to take a moment to address our technological situation. Unfortunately that's not going to be happening, as I've found out the hard way that keeping over a dozen idiots in one base can create a lot of chaos. Today I had to take the time to address the chaos in person.

(http://oi55.tinypic.com/a3gmrn.jpg): Hello, brother!

(http://oi53.tinypic.com/149qumc.jpg): Oh. Asuka. Come in, I guess.

(http://oi55.tinypic.com/a3gmrn.jpg): I keep telling you, I'm not Asuka! I'm Ikari, your sister!

(http://oi53.tinypic.com/149qumc.jpg): Okay, I'm officially finished with this. You look exactly like Asuka, you are dressed exactly like her damn it! You honestly expect me to believe that you're not her?

(http://oi55.tinypic.com/a3gmrn.jpg): Well, in that case, pull my record out of that drawer behind you and I'll show you I'm not her!

(http://oi53.tinypic.com/149qumc.jpg): Hm? Oh fine, fine, let me just turn around here. Let's see... Asuka, Asuka... found it. Here, let's take a look at *click* oh. I see you've pointed a gun in my face.

(http://oi55.tinypic.com/a3gmrn.jpg): Say goodnight, brother.

(http://oi53.tinypic.com/149qumc.jpg): You're about to shoot me in the face, Asuka, I think you can drop the act.

(http://oi55.tinypic.com/a3gmrn.jpg): It is NOT an act! I'm going to shoot you because I'm sick of you getting everything! Mother and father forgot I even existed because of you!

(http://oi53.tinypic.com/149qumc.jpg): To be fair, I forgot too.

(http://oi55.tinypic.com/a3gmrn.jpg): SHUT UP! Well, now I can finish you off, and take control of X-COM for myself.

(http://oi53.tinypic.com/149qumc.jpg): It doesn't work that way.

(http://oi55.tinypic.com/a3gmrn.jpg): SHUT UP!

(http://oi53.tinypic.com/149qumc.jpg): Well, if that's the way you feel I suppose I have nothing to do but submit and--QUIBBLE, NOW!

(http://oi55.tinypic.com/a3gmrn.jpg): Wait, what?!

*BANG* *thud*

(http://oi53.tinypic.com/149qumc.jpg): A rookie mistake, Asuka. Turning your back on someone like me.

(http://archives.bulbagarden.net/media/upload/7/7a/S2_Scientist.png): Sir, did you call for--oh wow! Sir, you've shot Ikari in the head! We need to get her to the med-bay!

(http://oi53.tinypic.com/149qumc.jpg): It seems I have. But we can't take her just yet. Grab the body and follow me, Quibble.

(http://archives.bulbagarden.net/media/upload/7/7a/S2_Scientist.png): My name's not... *sigh* Yes, sir.

I gathered everyone into the Skyranger hangar. And what would they find but the body of their dear friend Asuka, propped up and bleeding from the head?

(http://oi53.tinypic.com/149qumc.jpg): See this, everyone? Our friend Ikari here decided that you could all play poker whenever you wanted, and decided to bring the matter up with me, in a most physical manner. THIS is what happens when my orders are questioned, are we clear? Dismissed.

After that she was brought to the med bay. The doctors claimed she would be fine, after some time spent healing. I've made a note to improve my aim the next time around.

Not much else happened today that I've been involved with. Tarvish went through a makeover to attempt to appear less terrifying.

(http://oi51.tinypic.com/2znu4r5.jpg): Hardly!

I spent the rest of the day on a computer, trying to figure out where all these people had come from. There are some major discrepancies between their actions there and here. For one, Simon is acting extremely violent, while as far as I can tell he was kind in his previous incarnation. I've started to question whether they, or any of us, are our actual selves, or merely some sort of copy. It bears further investigation, I believe, but for the moment I have technology to research.

He says that his tank can destroy things like nobody's business as long as he has the willpower to do so. Unlike Shinji, I have a feeling he won't disappoint us in that regard. So can he use his tank? Please? I want to watch things explode. By the way, he's done more work on the mining than the guys assigned here in a single day. That should be proof enough.

Mate, it's all in the hand of the RNG. One plasma pistol shot can wreck a tank, or one plasma pistol shot could half damage a soldier. Soldiers are superior in every way compared to a tank. The only reason to use them is as a scouting tool to take the first enemy fire, or as a way to maximize the amount of units you get at Cydonia, where the 80 item cap is a bitch.

Rag, it's all your fault. You should have seen how there were over 9000 people already signed up, and who expect to actually get a chance.

I don't really see how squishies would be superior.

Must be a weird quirk of the game.

Mostly I just wanted the tank to fit with the character, due to the fact that he uses a vehicle.

All considered, the tanks in this game are ridiculously tiny and remote controlled. Also note this line:
"Remember, your equipment is always made by the lowest bidder."

The best equipment that tanks have early game are rocket launchers, which could be substituted by the normal soldier, who can also enter UFOs while Tanks can't. Tanks also cause ridiculous collateral damage.

True, but Tanks don't lose TUs due to strength, Tanks can have more than 5 shots, Tanks are more accurate Early game, Tanks are more expendable, A rocket launcher being used INSIDE a UFO is suicide, and soldiers can still use the tank for cover if they crouch.

And now that I think of it: Tanks CAN in fact enter a decent number of UFO designs, and collateral damage means diddly squat and give the enemy fewer places to hide ( It doesn't matter as much for you guys because they'll blast any cover you have to smithereens anyways)

I concede that infantry has it's uses, as they are more manuverable, cheaper, and can switch weapons easier, as well as being able to fit in buildings. Tanks are more expensive, but a properly outfitted one could probably take on a huge number of Infantry without being overtaken. Granted, 'Properly outfitted' probably involves a hell of a lot of guns, but still.

And as Warhammer said, Collateral Damage is not always a bad thing. it's a lot easier to shoot someone if they can't hide behind a wall.

Again, at this point EVERYTHING is Squishy. My tanks generally survive more that one shot however and we don't even have personal armor yet that -might- allow the soldiers to say the same thing.

Again: we aren't penalized for collateral damage in any way, and seeing how destructive the fights in Evangilon could be I doubt Gendo gives a damn either.

Heck, he could probably take his tank and change it into one.

That would confuse the heck out of the scientists.

After yesterday's incident, I decided to take the calm moments to go over our achievements.

This was a good start. Laser weapons, in theory, require no ammunition, and could be used almost endlessly by our troops. A good backup weapon to use in a pinch.

The mission was a success, if one defined a success very loosely. The alien threat was entirely eliminated, and the more I hear about this Spiral Energy the kid keeps talking about, the more intrigued I am.

We have a lot of new buildings to integrate into the base. I tried to put in an order for the troops' preferred weapons today, and was informed we were out of storage space. All we have to do to fix that is make a little more.

(http://lparchive.org/Princess-Maker-2/Update%2022/img-12.jpg): Sure! Why not! I want to know more about how this other kind of magic works. I may be able to put it to some use sometime myself. Let's see if we can get Greg to still animate despite missing his vitals (or his body for that matter). So far, he's pretty boring as just a head. It'll take some effort repairing that corpse though.

EDIT:
(http://lparchive.org/Princess-Maker-2/Update%2022/img-20.jpg): Maybe I can check out the morgue for a body I can mount his head on temporarily. It looks like it might still work. Wait, is Pat's corpse still available? I might have to ask Daddy to bribe the authorities for the trouble. I think I also saw a mount on Simon's tank as well. Seems like a good spot for a head.

An email pops up on Gendo's computer with all the possible new recruit. There is an infinity sign next to Coalition Light and Heavy, Browncoat Light and Heavy, and the Ronins. There is also an infinity sign next to Cultist-Chan's name.

Yeah, but when Cultist-Chan dies, she comes back as a child version of herself.
But she ages at a randomized rate, so she can come in every recruit wave, if she dies enough.

I think someone stowed Greg's body in an alien containment jar. The facility isn't even finished being built yet, but I did hear a big package was delivered; I think that was it. I think somebody doesn't like him so much. I think Red-hair McLoudmouth did this.

A massive smash dents the door to the storage area a little, poking a small hole in the door. All Simon can see through the hole is the glint of red metal before a massive electrical shock forces the thing to back off. A pained scream echoes from inside, a voice that sounds extremely familiar to him.

This mission was a disaster. For all my experience, I never expected the Sectoids to lay a trap for us, and yet we lost two of our best soldiers in the crossfire. And the others didn't come off unscathed; I don't know how long Simon will need to repair the Lagann-Tank, and even if I let him do it, how long will it be before he uses it to free the upstart?

Due to his excellent service under pressure, Tarvish has taken Simmura's spot as Sergeant. Simmura was a good man, and will be sorely missed. But right now he is the least of my concerns, between balancing research and manufacturing, and trying to keep my own soldiers from rebelling. Luckily, I have a plan to deal with it.

Gendo, logging out.

Simon is in the vehicle bay, looking over Lagann.
(http://i760.photobucket.com/albums/xx250/Ragnarok97071/anime_tengenToppaGurrenLagann-simon.gif): Can't rescue him right now, Gendo'll have me watched. I cannot help but admit that he has a point, though. Given the choice, I would probably agree with him, but if he does have Aniki, why is he keeping him locked up? and why does he still have Gurren? This makes no sense. I need to find some way to get into that room without setting off that shock system. I wonder if the engineers keep blueprints of the base handy...
Checking over the tank, Simon shakes his head.
(http://i760.photobucket.com/albums/xx250/Ragnarok97071/anime_tengenToppaGurrenLagann-simon.gif): I could get you back in shape in seconds, but it'll wear off after a few minutes. I'll need to figure out what's broken and get with some engineers to fix it. Say what you want about Leeron, but he would be incredibly useful right about now.
Simon climbs into the cockpit, and fires up the lagann.
(http://i760.photobucket.com/albums/xx250/Ragnarok97071/anime_tengenToppaGurrenLagann-simon.gif): Alright, lets see...
Various readouts appear as if out of nowhere, detailing what parts are damaged. He removes the core drill and exits the tank.
(http://i760.photobucket.com/albums/xx250/Ragnarok97071/anime_tengenToppaGurrenLagann-simon.gif): Now I just need to find someone who can fix you...

Give her high explosives and I'm sure she'll scare the shit out of these aliens and she rushes towards them with a "Present".

A figure runs around the base, slicing zombies to thin pieces with his nodachi. He is covered by a thick black cloak, and no features can be made out except for a bright red eye. As the last one is slain, he finds himself standing face to face with Simon. The figure hesitates, then dashes out of sight.

A good amount get impaled by drills when they try to get to Simon as well, though he doesn't seek them out. They charge him after a while since he killed so many of them, however. And then the man shows up and kills the few that are still around.

I guess it's some sort of courtesy or something; I didn't mind so much, seeing as royalty pulls the same crap all the time (after all, I got to know them quite well in the past). Most other people run away from just how badass I am.

A burst of energy flares out behind him, and he rockets across the room, impacting in the direct center of the portal. The counter-rotation of his drill slows, and then stops the chaos energy, and the portal is blasted into oblivion. Standing on the other side of where it was, he returns his hand to normal, breathing heavily.

Okay, this is getting out of hand, I'm afraid I'm going to have to put my foot down. I need you guys to tone down the RP. If your character is not within the squad as of yet (Cultist Chan was accepted just after the last update so she is the exception) I'm going to have to ask you to stop posting as them until they are accepted into the squad. If you have not submitted an application submit one ASAP, as I cannot guarantee their survival otherwise.

If you wish to apply as a scientist or a pilot, those jobs are still open as well.

Gendo's Diary: Page 1

I've decided to keep a log of the events here at SEALE HQ. Things have started to grow out of hand, lately. It all started when Quibble entered my office a few weeks ago...

(http://archives.bulbagarden.net/media/upload/7/7a/S2_Scientist.png): Director Ikari, I think you're going to love what we have for you!

(http://oi53.tinypic.com/149qumc.jpg): Who made it?

(http://archives.bulbagarden.net/media/upload/7/7a/S2_Scientist.png): I did, sir.

(http://oi53.tinypic.com/149qumc.jpg): *sigh* Fine. Let's see what you have, Quibble.

He brought me down into the Alien Containment sector, which held a massive machine. It was a large series of tubes and wires, all hooked up to some kind of metal cube. I asked him what it was, but he wouldn't tell me. He couldn't shut up about all of the scientific break-throughs this device would lead to, including making death entirely meaningless.

(http://oi53.tinypic.com/149qumc.jpg): Quibble, I already don't care about any of your deaths, I don't see how you could make it any more meaningless for me.

(http://archives.bulbagarden.net/media/upload/7/7a/S2_Scientist.png): Ah, but that's where you're wrong, Director! This machine, the cube we've got hooked up, has the ability to bring machines to life!

(http://oi53.tinypic.com/149qumc.jpg): Congratulations, your findings will advance the Tamagotchi industry by thirty years. What does this have to do with our alien problem?

(http://archives.bulbagarden.net/media/upload/7/7a/S2_Scientist.png): Limitless soldiers, sir! Every soldier that we've lost can be brought back to continue fighting, with all of the abilities they had in life, and the room to grow even more powerful! It's True Resurrection, Director Ikari, we hold the power of God in our hands!

(http://oi53.tinypic.com/149qumc.jpg): Which one?

(http://archives.bulbagarden.net/media/upload/7/7a/S2_Scientist.png): Er... what?

(http://oi53.tinypic.com/149qumc.jpg): Which God?

(http://archives.bulbagarden.net/media/upload/7/7a/S2_Scientist.png): Um... Judeo-Christian?

(http://oi53.tinypic.com/149qumc.jpg): Ah, good. He knew how to smite someone when they got on his nerves. That's the kind of power we can use. In fact, I know exactly where to start...

We hadn't had the boy Simon on our team for long, but I already knew he would be an issue. I read his file, and his ideals... weren't a perfect mesh with my own. He would need to be controlled, and I figured the best way to keep him in line was appeasement. With all the corpses we had piled up, it didn't take long for us to create the perfect replica of an old friend of his...

(http://oi53.tinypic.com/149qumc.jpg): Are you ready, Quibble? Activate the machine.

I still remember the horrible jerking the body made as the cube filled it with life. It took nearly ten minutes, but finally, a voice.

??: ....--AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

(http://oi53.tinypic.com/149qumc.jpg): Shut it off, Quibble, we've got him.

??: Er... phew. Where the hell am I?

(http://oi53.tinypic.com/149qumc.jpg): You're on Earth, and you've just been drafted. Welcome to the fight, Kamina.

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

(http://oi53.tinypic.com/258b0i8.jpg): NO WAY!!

I really should have expected that response from him. Being the rebel that he is. Working for someone like me would be completely against his ideals, though I can't even begin to imagine how he knew to distrust me from the moment I spoke to him. I admit, I was disappointed that I had to have him killed, but it had to be done. I kept a pair of bodyguards on hand at all times, they would suffice to defeat a lone man with a sword. What I didn't count on was the young man forming a giant red mech out of sheer willpower.

(http://oi53.tinypic.com/258b0i8.jpg): HEY HEY HEY HEY HEY! YOU THINK I'M GONNA STAND BY AND WATCH YOU SEND MY BRO TO FIGHT THESE ALIENS ON HIS OWN?! OUTTA MY WAY!

By some miracle we'd trapped him in the storage room, where he has remained since, only leaving on occasions where I required his assistance. Obviously, if he even thought about disobeying, his precious "bro" Simon would be killed in an instant; he had no choice but to comply. One such occasion was my next subject: the zombie apocalypse.

While Kamina's resurrection went perfectly, it appears that he was a special case. Out of the other thirty attempts we made, only one stuck: the disembodied brain of Pat the Androgynous. And even then only partially. It went rogue, and took remote command of all the corpses we had on hand to attempt the process with. The zombies attacked the base, but by a stroke of luck my agents dealt with them while suffering no casualties. Kamina's help was most appreciated.

Unfortunately, I find myself in a predicament. He has made me promise that on the next mission, he is to accompany Simon into battle, to ensure his safety. If I refuse, his mech is going to bite me in half. Most people would find such an idea preposterous; in my case, I have little choice but to agree. I will end the log here, as I have much to prepare for in case Simon's reaction to Kamina's story prove... contrary to my interests.

Playing our first terror mission now. As a side note, sometimes my recruits have stats so abysmally low I consider it unfair to assign you them. These will be Redshirt units, named Redshirt, and will be used as base guards. This means you may need to wait a little longer for your man to be in, but at least you'll get a halfway-decent soldier.

She's killed GODS before, man, it would be more of a delay than an outright roadblock.

That would most likely take out all of heaven, earth, and hell in one huge blast of destructive power.

Or a paradox.

Or both.

CHAPTER 9: Judgment

This log is being entered by Gendo Ikari, Director of X-COM. Today will be a day we will remember for the rest of this war, for better or for worse. It will be the fire from which we shall pass through, either as a reformed and reforged entity, or a pile of ashes. Of the two, I cannot say for certain which we will end as. It all started this morning, as I interviewed our newest member.

I had no time to relax after that ordeal before the inevitable occurred.

The aliens had struck a major city. Beijing, China, and a vital trade center in this world, as I'm told. I was still waiting for more reinforcements to fill out our casualties; I had no choice but to send the prisoner on the trip, as was our deal. I could only hope he'd prove to be useful.

He now travels from ~~planet to planet~~ country to country with his trusty companion Bloodwing, searching for "everything this freaking universe owes me," which Mordecai has defined as a better gun and unlimited cash.

Well sure someone asked for him. I did. I get a character too, you know. I haven't forgotten the dead, but new characters get priority over respawned ones. Normally I'd feel bad about this, but the new bases you can build can house tons of men.

Bio: Hailing from the same universe as Kharn, Cain is a Political Officer whose entire goal is to keep people in line and following orders. Amongst his home universe, he is one of the biggest heroes in the galaxy, with a sall cult of the Tallarns worshiping him as a divine manifestation of the Emperor's will. To those who actually know him however, he's the patron saint of luck and sarcasm. In actuality, his only real desire to retire somewhere, preferably a tropical planet, and live out his life without ever going near a warzone again before dying peacefully in bed (preferably someone else's). He's also rather miffed that Jurgen, his aid, was unable to accompany him to X-Com.

Status Update

(http://i.imgur.com/bXAQA.jpg)

(http://oi53.tinypic.com/149qumc.jpg): We are not in the best of condition. Only five of our men survived the mission with no harm done to them. Shinji was severely wounded during the battle, and will most likely be out of the fighting for some time. Simon's Lagann-Tank is out of ammo, but we have sent away for much more. We have acquired a new recruit who calls himself Sollex, but I have not yet had a chance to interview him, and it is likely that we will be waiting for a while longer before the rest of our reinforcements arrive.

(http://oi53.tinypic.com/149qumc.jpg): We also have two recruits with abilities so abysmally low, I have assigned them to guard duty up until now, and indeed have failed to mention them in my logs. However, it appears we may end up having to rely on these two for a while. I can only hope that they last long enough to be replaced by more competent men.

(http://oi56.tinypic.com/2u73wv8.jpg): Director Ikari, your negligence to protect your investors is the only reason we have done so. We have lost an entire district of Beijing to these invaders, because your men were unable to stop them.

(http://oi53.tinypic.com/149qumc.jpg): Unable to--? If your military forces had gotten off their asses and helped, we could have pushed back those aliens! None of my men or your citizens had to die!

(http://oi56.tinypic.com/2u73wv8.jpg): That is not the job of our soldiers, Ikari. It is yours. If you perform more admirably in the future, perhaps we shall return your funding to its original state. Otherwise, you should be prepared to cut the luxuries that you have been drifting by on.

(http://oi53.tinypic.com/149qumc.jpg): You call the shithole you've stuck us in a "luxury"? If I ever get my hands on you ambassador, I swear I'll--

(http://oi56.tinypic.com/2u73wv8.jpg): Ending transmission. *Zzrp*

And there it was. It was only then I realized how dysfunctional the governments of this world were. Almost as bad as the ones back home. We had to get by on even less now. I planned on taking a break, only to find that the alarms had sounded. A UFO was making its way across Northern Europe. I launched an Interceptor to bring it down.

CHAPTER 11: Ready, Set, GAUX!

Gendo Ikari logging in. Today is March 1st, 1999. And life is good. The month of February was a neat contrast to the disaster of our first foray into combating aliens. It was early in the morning when I was first brought into the lab by Wibble.

(http://archives.bulbagarden.net/media/upload/thumb/9/98/XD_Researcher.png/65px-XD_Researcher.png): I think you're going to love what we have for you today, Director Ikari.

(http://oi53.tinypic.com/149qumc.jpg): You'd better hope so. Let's see it.

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

(http://archives.bulbagarden.net/media/upload/thumb/9/98/XD_Researcher.png/65px-XD_Researcher.png): After the success our Laser Pistols showed in the field, we've decided to take it a step further. These Laser Rifles are very powerful and accurate, but more importantly, they need no external ammo or power source. They can be used indefinitely.

(http://oi53.tinypic.com/149qumc.jpg): Interesting. What else do you have for me?

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

(http://archives.bulbagarden.net/media/upload/thumb/9/98/XD_Researcher.png/65px-XD_Researcher.png): Here's the report on the Sectoid corpse autopsy.

(http://oi53.tinypic.com/149qumc.jpg): Interesting. So then these are just the grunts of the operation, which means that there are others, higher up on the chain.

(http://archives.bulbagarden.net/media/upload/thumb/9/98/XD_Researcher.png/65px-XD_Researcher.png): If I might make a theory on the spot, sir, I'd say those floating creatures you encountered in Beijing were a higher ranked species than the Sectoids. And those mindless monstrosities they brought with them some kind of bodyguard.

(http://oi53.tinypic.com/149qumc.jpg): A good thought, Wibble; but we're speculating at best. Bring me something else.

(http://archives.bulbagarden.net/media/upload/thumb/9/98/XD_Researcher.png/65px-XD_Researcher.png): Well, sir, we have given each member of the squad Medi-Kits. These kits allow them to patch otherwise fatal wounds, revive unconcious allies, and provide stimulants to increase their awareness and boost morale.

(http://oi53.tinypic.com/149qumc.jpg): Very good, Wibble. You've pleased me for today. Now go find Quibble and smack him with the newspaper, as we agreed.

Over a week passed after that. Literally nothing occurred within the base. I began to speculate that the aliens had pinpointed our location, and were attempting to avoid us at all costs. That was when I decided it was time to expand.

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

This was Phase 1 of the GAUX initiative. X-COM needed to expand to other continents, and GAUX (Grunts Against Unidentified alien eXcursions) would be the branch that handled that. We would begin building fully autonomous bases and filling them with their own staff (although all would be answering to me) to create an impenetrable web. The aliens would have nowhere to hide on the planet.

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Night set on the two bases. I decided to set Quibble and his newly-bolstered research staff (from a shipment of new scientists and engineers) to begin researching the alien alloys we had recovered from the ships.

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

They had figured out the basics of it by the end of the week, and told me they could begin research into a suit of armor for our troops, crafted from the alloy.

I set him to that, and began production of the alien alloy, which our engineers had already begun to grasp the production of.

It was after that an alarm sounded, and another UFO was spotted, this time making its way toward Rome. In order to prevent a full-scale invasion, we launched an Interceptor to take care of it. This time, the UFO fought back.

In a freaky alternate dimension, Stich, Mordecai, Sniper Joe, Tarvish, Steve, and Uriel were killed in a terrible explosion. Codecimal went berserk and killed Sollex in a fit of rage, and forced Mordecai to put him down before he was himself slain by another explosion. Kamina was the only survivor. Luckily this was in a parallel dimension and never happened in our timeline.

Name+Profile pic: (Name should be obvious, and provide a picture you'd like to represent your character. I can handle re-sizing, though pre-shrunk status is appreciated.)
Gender: (Least likely to be attended to based on the random draw of soldiers)
Preferred Equipment: (Obvious, I'd think)
Bio: (Any other info you'd like to share, I'll try and work it into character interactions)

If you don't know much about X-COM, for equipment just put down the general type of soldier you want to be (heavy weapons, rifleman, grenades, pistols, etc.)

Damn, ninja'd. I was going to advise, since you have an appropriate avatar anyway; why not Johnny Bravo (Man, I'm pretty! Huh HAH uh!!!). Of course, flirting with the female scientists will end up making him a target for weapons research.

Son of a Bitch. All the Roleplay. I never think I could keep up with such updates.

But never the less, I am joining.

(http://img.ie/c9c27.png)
Name: Travis Namio
Gender: Male
Preferred Equipment: (Basically, Weapons to stab in the back with, weapons to shoot people in the face from a safe distance, and perferably a role related to stealth and running really fast.)
Bio: (Sorry for the bio's messiness. Its pretty damned late >.>) A trained underground assassin in his past life, he gave up on his criminal ways after a few years, and payed a few dollars to get his name wiped from the police books. He had an above-average intelligence, and also seemed to be the only man who knew what he was doing half the time. Honestly, he was the only one with a real common sense, although sanity comes with its prices. He has experianced awful luck, one incident was that partically notable and sad to his case is [CLASSIFIED]. Also, from his experiance from assassination work, he is a very good shot, and is pretty damned good at stealth, but has horribly weak body strength ^{(Forcing him to refrain to Knives for anykind of melee)}, and hates fighting in open fields. Other then that, he perfers coffee (Being an Assassin required constant vigilance. Now its more out of habit as he is no longer an offical underground assassin.) , likes music (Carries around Headphones in his Hood half the time. Most of the time they have music playing.) , and can be somewhat cowardly at times (Why else do you think he can run so fast?). He joined X-COM because he felt (semi-)guilty about his past shrouded in death and wanted to help the world at least once in his short life (Even though he is just currently 20. Says he felt a lot older at the time he said that.). He equiped his suit with a stasis module, making him go into a comma and shutting down almost all body functions (keeping him technically alive, but rendering him practically dead) when he is about to die. His time in stasis allows his body to heal as enemy forces think hes dead. This makes him effectively immortal in combat, enabling him to return to the battlefield after "death" multiple times after he heals in stasis. However, a downside is that the healing time is completely unpredicitable, ranging from one week to a year, or more! He is also very protective of the stasis module, not caring to share it around with ANYONE. He also refuses to talk about how he got it, and now that you think about it, how many other stasis modules are there anyway? Last report of them was a years ago, and their was only three. Production of them is also near impossible, seeing as the reasources required are massive, and any factories that made them shut down a few years ago. This only makes the question of how he got it more curious...

A very notable feature is that while he seems to be a jerkass most of the time, on the battlefield and other important scenarios, he seems to be very protective of his friends or anyone innocent. Sometimes even going as far as risking his own life and rank to save lives or help people. Overall, the case of Travis Namio is a strange one, but he is a skilled fighter none the less.

We're just about at that lucky number, could somebody do a headcount for me? I am a little busy, you see, planning for a big trip to Peru right now, so consider this on hiatus from now through next week. Feel free to RP (existing characters), so long as it doesn't get TOO loony. For the record, nothing done so far has been too loony, save for characters mysteriously appearing.

I'd say about a week. I know exactly how you feel.

After a sudden relization, what I want to find out the most in the next update is not my characters, but Gendo's reaction after a job interview with a mute woman that is constantly rejected by other companies, a former and reformed underground jerkass Assassin, and then a ("possibly" *Wink*) former communist russian terrorist.

Most likely a comment about how low X-COM's recruiting standards are currently.

Gender: Whatever you want, baby.
Preferred Equipment: Thermal Flares, Lasers, Smoke Grenades, and Stun Batons
Bio: The Disco Bandit boogies to and fro, hither and yon. Whence comes he? No man knows. Whither strikes he next? Here, at XCOM!
He can commonly be seen groovin' out his newest dance move: "Crouch before you shoot".

And behind him in the queue is:

Preferred Equipment: Something that fires an electrical ball, perhaps a stun launcher. Or whatever durable gun we have lying around.
Bio: A Soldier transformed into the ultimate fighter, his body has been warped and his mind shattered. His personality erratically and unpredictably changes from a violent beast and an avatar of peace. Confused, he escaped aboard a fruit freight and found himself in the xcom base.
[This is all taken from the old Street Fighter movie, if he has an updated bio and personality, then please use that. By default I'm turning down all revives just to make things more dramatic in the event of a death. ]

Scientist
Bio: It's a mystery :o
Nobody wants to stay a while and listen to his story, but he seems to be able to identify every single item in existence, no doubt useful for science!

I might have gone overboard with the characters.

Here's a tip with constructing new bases:
Enemies enter from the elevator and hangars, so what you probably want to do is to make sure that these two are connected. Let's call this the entrance block for simplicity. Now, make sure that the entrance block is adjacent to at most two structures, so you can have choke points when defending the base. Sure that leaves some squares unused, but it is almost always worth it.

CHAPTER 13: Unlucky 13

Director Ikari, reporting another catastrophe. The survivors have just returned from Moscow and are in the sick bay being treated for their injuries. The funeral will be held in an hour, but first I needed to write down this entry and explain what happened.

Only one body was recovered in the retreat. Stitch's. I can understand Tarvish's reasoning. She was the only other one of the first few waves still alive, besides Shinji. I pulled them all back immediately; no status page will be shown of the debriefing. Suffice it to say we failed. I have decided that there will no longer be any excursions to terrorized cities until the world's governments are willing to commit their own troops to the battle.

Now then, I believe it is time for the Captain's funeral. The newly-appointed Captain Tarvish will be leading the proceedings. Afterwards I have recruits to interview. Director Ikari, logging out.

A tip: Try using grenades against Cyberdiscs. They cover four squares, so they take approximately four times the damage that a normal alien would take. Cyberdiscs have insane reactions, but they won't shoot back if the thrower is not in sight.

Also, don't ever move your troops across open ground in a terror mission. Aliens like to lurk in the alleyways, so anyone out in the open will be a sitting duck. Since you already have laser rifles, go into the buildings (through the wall) and enter the alleys from the center, instead of from either end.

Gendo's Diary: Entry 2

It's been a while since I wrote in this. I figured it was time I tried it again; after the last disaster our main X-COM base has been in disarray attempting to form another cohesive unit to combat the alien threats.

I guess Cube's chivalry has gotten him signed up as a member of XCOM now directly. He'd probably be sticking with the Skyranger until Lizzy is shot again, and try to carry her back within the Skyranger, instead of cross-country flying.

I do whatever I find funniest, and Gendo hadn't shot a guy in a while. It could just have easily been Cain, but I picked your guy. No dislike toward you or toward whoever suggested Cain. Remember: this is an X-COM game run by a maniac pretending to be Gendo Ikari. Getting out with a bullet wound to the leg is pretty lucky.

Then he'll be different in the future. While this is ostensibly a serious story, humor is still ingrained in its every fiber. (That's a lot of big words, wow I didn't even know I knew some of them.) Thus, characters on occasion act differently for the sake of a joke. And if you'll look back you'll see I actually did make a very weak, poorly explained reason for why this happens in-universe.

But the point is, he acted that way once, he won't in the future. He'll be the guy you described him as.

Hudson seemed a bit too confident at first. But then I remembered that most of his best lines came after he had seen the vast majority of the marines wiped out in a few minutes.

I think that may have been largely due to playstyle; Uriel or whoever covered for her retreat at least once, and she didn't have an especially good kill count past the beginning, presumably due to not really being on the front lines (or at least first on the front lines).

CJ1145 said a couple pages back that he had a relative visiting. Last official update was on the 15th (http://www.bay12forums.com/smf/index.php?topic=82989.msg2357423#msg2357423), but his last post was only a couple days ago (http://www.bay12forums.com/smf/index.php?topic=82989.msg2365955#msg2365955), so he's still around.

I've been silently following this thread for months. I think it's time for me to submit a character.

(http://i54.tinypic.com/4hf6us.jpg)
Name: Haruhi Suzumiya
Gender: Female
Role: Soldier
Preferred Equipment:

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Bio: Haruhi is a reality warper (http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/RealityWarper) theorized by her companions to be a physical incarnation of God, personally. The only problem is that she has no idea, and believes herself to be a totally ordinary teenage girl in a completely mundane world where nothing interesting ever happens. Her overall quest in life is to find "aliens, time travelers, dimensional sliders or espers" or anything genuinely magical or interesting in some way. Sadly, she firmly believes that no such people or things really exist. Even though pretty much everyone she knows happens to be one, and only associates with her to try to keep her sufficiently distracted that she doesn't accidentally destroy the universe by using powers she doesn't realize she has, but that manifest all too often.

Interdimensional portals, time-loops and terrain-destroying robot-alien duels are constantly happening wherever she goes, but they always manage to happen just outside of her field of vision, or with entirely plausible alternate explanations for the little bit that she did manage to see. If she dies, or for that matter, if the universe were to suddenly explode she could simply bring both it and herself back, but it would be with no awareness of having done so, and probably with great annoyance that nothing interesting had happened that day.

In terms of personality she tends to swap back and forth between "irritated, sociopathic, pompous brat and irritating, sociopathic genki girl (http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/GenkiGirl) who vows to allow nothing to stand in her way."

CHAPTER 14: THE GUT-WRENCHING TURNABOUT

I had begun to worry that this was the end of X-COM. Even with the construction of Team GAUX's HQ well underway, and the team picked out, they weren't combat ready. My main team was in tatters and yet they were humanity's only hope against the alien onslaught. My worries ended up being for nothing, however, when the new shipment of soldiers arrived.

Things were looking up. For the rest of that day.

Above are several images taken from our HQ's screens over the course of March as we watched countless UFOs escape our Interceptors. For the rest of that month we could do nothing. Though worst of all was the terror strike on Nairobi:

And complain they did.

They told me that I had not performed to their standards. I responded that I had done damn well for running on the same budget as the average Elementary School. They said they didn't care, and that India had decided the aliens were worth negotiating with. The damned fools, once they went through an Impact or two they might understand just how wrong they were. At the end, they drastically cut my funding and told me to do a better job. A self-destructive tactic if I have ever seen one. I wonder how many of them are already in league with the aliens.

Finally, though, came luck.

A small UFO crashed down close to our base. I sent the newly-reformed team to investigate the crash.

Our supervisors rated this mission barely a success. But I know better. We needed a morale boost after our last failure, and once again a victory with no deaths will help us with that. Tarvish survived the shot he took to his lower abdomen, in no small part thanks to the efforts of our new medic Franken Fran. In an odd twist of fate, the alien took three rifle rounds to the same area. And he survived as well.

This was our first real victory. Not just repelling some assault on a city, but instead capturing a live specimen from one of the species on the higher tiers of this alien invasion force. This is the first step of many in winning this war once and for all, and I believe X-COM will be the ones to win it.

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

In anticipation of future expansion, promotions are in order. We now have three captains, Shinji being one of them. Tarvish has been promoted to Colonel for his repeated heroism and is expected to be out of the med bay within two days. The new girl, Haruhi, has been made a Sergeant for a fearless charge towards the alien that ultimately did nothing but cause it to look slightly to its right as Mordecai filled its belly with lead. That said, I'm somewhat worried. When she saw the alien, for a brief moment our video feed cut out. Not with static, the feed just got what I can only describe as nothing. It's unlike anything you have seen, not a blank white or pitch black expanse like you are lead to believe.

It is impossible to describe, and I hope no one will ever encounter what it is truly like.

I've caught myself rambling and will terminate this entry immediately. Will resume logs when new advancements or news arrives. Gendo out.

not responding to terror missions without armed assistance

Game tip:
If you send a team to a terror site then immediately abandon without even exiting the craft, you'll get less of a penalty than if you completely ignore it. A full 1000 points (http://www.ufopaedia.org/index.php?title=Scoring#Alien_Scoring) of the -2170 monthly rating you got for March came because you ignored it.

(http://i55.tinypic.com/21diiqb.jpg)

Oh, come off it. Nothing happened. I'm so bored.

...nothing happened? What about Tarvish? He got shot!

(http://i53.tinypic.com/2lw3xxi.jpg)

Obviously it was a self inflicted wound.

What, you're saying he shot himself? In the abdomen?

(http://i52.tinypic.com/14t98n7.jpg)

Hey! It's not my problem if he's a complete klutz. Nobody liked him anyway.

Don't talk about the guy in past tense. He did survive, you know.

(http://i55.tinypic.com/21diiqb.jpg)

Yeah, whatever. And while we're talking about my problems...

Actually I wasn't.

(http://i55.tinypic.com/2hxvi2e.jpg)

I've already been here a week and I'm only a seargent! What idiot created the ranking structure here? I should be a general by now, at least!

Right. Well, I don't think I can help you with that. The rank progression is pretty much fixed.

(http://i56.tinypic.com/10pyh39.jpg)

I agree that it should be fixed! Get to it, Bucket! I want to be president by tomorrow.

I think I won't tell her that Gendo's in charge of Xcom here, not me.

On an unrelated note, why are we shooting down small craft rather than allowing them to land, in order to collect valuable ship components?

*Travis Catchs the bottle in mid air and throws it back at him, smashing his beer into pieces*

Pious unholsters his hot-shot laspistol and shoots Travis's book, putting a sizable hole in it and setting fire to the remainder*
(http://oi56.tinypic.com/2irrrpv.jpg): Now put that out and piss off. Oh, an' quit makin' faces. I've met PDF troopers that're scarier than you.

Pious reholsters his gun and suits action to word, nabbing a sixpack and giving Travis the finger on the way out*

I would love to actually participate in this :D I read the whole thing, and despite never touching X-Com (I loved the GBA ripoff, though) I enjoyed this.

Code: [Select]

NAME  : Debesh 
GENDER: Can anyone really tell with dwarves?
EQUIP : A laser-based weapon would be preferable. Something accurate, if not.
BIO   : Those damn aliens have socks. Debesh is insane enough to wage war against alien-kind for that sole reason, and s/he wishes to wrest a pair from the cold, dead body of an alien invader.

I also claim the first actual dwarf character :P

If you've submitted an application and haven't been accepted yet, that's because I have completely forgotten you. If you'd be so kind as to repost your application (just copy-pasting will do) I'll get you in.
Does Tarvis still have the rocket launcher?

Yes, he does.
