Dear Council of Nations

We thank you for approving the XCOM project. Unfortunately, we come with depressing news. Our commander has suddenly fallen ill and will be unable to continue operating XCOM to the best of his ability. His decision making abilities seem to be impaired heavily, and as such we are turning to you to help us out of our situation. While our forces on the ground are still going to be able to continue to execute plans as ordered, our base of operations may need help in creating a grand strategy in order to eradicate any alien threat.

In order to begin the process of removing any signs of alien life from Earth, we require some basic starter information. Firstly, we have been given the option to set up a mini base somewhere in the world. Our options are as follows:
- North America
- South America
- Europe
- Africa
- Asia
Once set up 4 of our men will immediately combat the alien threat closest to them in order to set up a good foothold and secure the base.

We are also aware that many of your council members are willing to help fight against this alien threat and so if you wish to join the XCOM squad, don't be afraid to leave your name, preferences and any other info you may want to add down and we will train you as required to become a fully fledged XCOM member. We know that the success of XCOM will depend entirely on these men and the strategies that they will use on the field, so we wish you to grade us every month depending on how well you think we are doing as a whole. If you think that XCOM is no longer fit to fight the threat... well... we can cross that bridge when we get to it.

Right now, we just need potential recruits and orders on our starting location so we can begin XCOM before the inevitable alien threat arrives and we can get a headstart on these fools. They will have no idea what planet they are messing with.

Signed
The XCOM team

The picture isn't cut, it's just in higher resolution, and on b12 forums you have to scroll each post individually to see the rest of the image. This makes long text and image let's play's in high resolution a pain in the ass to read.

When you add a picture, there is a [img] descriptor, simply make it [img width=900] and it will fit on the screen of most forum readers.  To declutter the post you can spoiler the pictures and add captions/descriptions.

Thanks Kaos, that worked great.

Let's get some starting locations now!

Asia, it needs the most satellites to get the bonus, so if you plan on getting them all that is a good start. Or EU for the nice science bonus. You won't be needing the US bonus for a while and Africa bonus if fine, but easily replaceable. The south america bonus is great in the beginning, but use diminish after a while. I suggest after starting in Asia to build a satellite up-link asap so we can get the south american bonus at once.

Oh, and name a soldier after me; dark blonde and of Scandinavian origin preferably, or just one of the EU countries.
