I'm pretty sure we order interceptors.what if all the mundane weapons, aircraft, and structures are subsidized by world governments? While super advanced medkits and reversed engineered alien weapons cost a bit more?Don't we build our own aircraft though? Or maybe we do order them, evidenced by the United States country bonus.
Akura probably wants to run it as-is, not while fiddling with windows that weren't designed to be resized. ResizeEnable works, for the most part, but it can cause an already-clunky game to become even more clunky.Does this still require a monitor that handle screen resolutions of greater than 1082x784? Because that's what's been keeping me from playing this.*points to sig
I run it on 1024x768.
Well yeah, but we aren't exactly using dollars hereThere is nothing intuitively realistic about the Simoleon prices in the strategic layer, they're all really nonsensical for the sake of balance.
please expand on this, I don't recall old xcom prices apart from having a couple stuff at really stupid high. what do you mean by nonsensical?
I would assume he means it costs slightly more than $40 to build an advanced futuristic fighter jet.
Oh, right. I thought everyone else was already a squaddieBah, Maxine was the only one who didn't promoteThe first 3 missions are the easiest things ever. It starts ramping up after that. And... she was already the highest ranking one in the mix.
It'll probably happen next time! And at least no-one seems to have been injured.
Revisions and expansions! A variant on Mordenkainen's Disjunction that is less overpowered and underpowered!...wut?
...There's only five total options. How in the world do you screw that event up ten times?Forgetting which options you chose the previous times? I only got that event maybe once every ten games, so I'd often forget
Just the voices, and you can turn those off.Heeey. If I were biased, I'd make the entire squad American, thank you very muchSpoiler: Socks (click to show/hide)
He's Scottish. As if the name "Wallace" wasn't a dead enough giveaway, that is...
So, two Brits and a Scotsman. Biased are we?
They already are.

[img width=(number in pixels)](image URL here)[/img]Yes to both. It's difficult and might require the advanced arc thrower, but it's entirely possible.What you are thinking of most definitely is an outsider, aka early ships captains and/or the crystal guys. Considering the mission to capture one is called 'Capture an Outsider'. For that matter CAN you stun etherials? They seem so op that they might not be stunnable.Noooo, I'm pretty sure the one that turns into a crystal is the Outsider. I have an Ethereal corpse being dissected right now.Because the Etherials don't have a body exactly. They don't have nerves or muscles to overwhelm.No ethereals definitely have a physical body, you might be thinking about an outsider though
They are the equivilant of a Forcefield generator projecting a humanoid form.
It is definately the one that stunsSpoiler (click to show/hide)
Which is the Etherial.
Speaking of, the mission went fine. I accidentally killed the Ethereal with a flushing shot (it critted on a 10% chance, damn it), but we took no losses.
Also can you stun crysalids?
