Notes
Currently dead Bay12ers: Mirihiro 'Disgrace' Sakurai, Anja 'Silver' Galena, Leeroy 'Old Man' Porkins, 'Arbalest' Bale
The UFO that was hunting us vanished.

-Future updates may transition to one mission per update, since my free time is changing. Might end up transitioning to all bay12ers in a team again.

Since I can't reliably sit and record in batches, it'll just have to come in piecemeal from now on.

Operation Infested Soul
https://youtu.be/gXI2jdQ3hDs

Team: Weeabostabby
Members: 2nd Lieutenant Gordon, Lance Corporal Makarov, Lance Corporal Lange, Lance Corporal Manzoor, Lance Corporal Foley
No Bay12 units deployed.

Time stamps
4:30 when the mission actually starts

After Action Report
So we sent five girls with dubious aiming skills on a round trip around the city block, where they carefully snuck around a building, sighted their inanimate target, and then proceeded to scratch the paint on it with like $1000 worth of bullets.

Casualties
2nd Lieutenant Gordon - Light injury

Featured Mission Image: The Face of Mercy

Would XCOM make new ammo for the new guns, or would they just recycle their assault ammo?

Bay12ers: "Shock and Awe" Shuzaka

Time stamps
2:55 when the mission actually starts

After Action Report
Lieutenant Felipe forgot his alloy armor undershirt back in the Skyranger. He calls it "Man-modeing".
The Commander learned to use the Shadowstrike person first FINALLY AFTER 170 MISSIONS and shows actual foresight and competence, a rare first in XCOM history.

Casualties
Master Sergeant Al-Kattan - Injury

Featured Mission Image: Dental Advertisement

Don't let your final moments be marred by a poorly shown tooth.
Be the pigeon. Avoid looking into the camera.

Featured Bullshit image: Rocketry

Note how it says "+3.84 tiles", which means the target (dead center) should be hit.
Not in frame: some civilians that were definitely in the blast radius.
Spoiler: nope (click to show/hide)
She missed everyone.

On the plus side: Moments before Bunker Buster Detonation.

Yeah...you can never count on rockets you fire after moving to hit anything at all. And I think 3.8 rounds up to 4 tiles, which is just enough to completely miss.

It felt more like it rounded 3.8 up to 6, 'cuz it in no way looked close.

Anyhoo.

https://youtu.be/cZgCGkAW2mM
Type: Secure enemy VIP

Team: Aggressors
Members: Master Sergeant Stewart, Master Sergeant Ferreira, Master Sergeant Asghari, Sergeant Cote, Rookie Henderson, Rookie Farahani
Bay12ers: Master Sergeant "Graverobber" Grave, Rookie 'Dorsid' Shorts,

Time stamps
10:25 when the mission actually starts.
13:35 beginning of combat action.
34:40 where things go slightly wrong for one of our dudes.

After Action Report
First it started like this
ADVENT makes the critical mistake where they didn't see us and we got the chance to kill their shit.


Seconds before ADVENT gets their shit handed to them


Seconds after ADVENT gets their shit handed to them


And immediately afterwards, ADVENT's numerically superior troops vanish at the rate of Unfair, despite them having flooded the city with faceless beforehand.


Unfortunately, Hubris(tm) strikes again, and one of our own is caught out of position.


Fortunately, with the help of a fellow Samurai, he gets away with just a little snake hugging.

Casualties
Master Sergeant Asghari - Light Injury

Good times.

I was amused that the first two faceless had no faces.

And, yeah, the fact that void strike returns all their actions is seriously unfair. Infinite teleportation gets broken fast. Fun, though.
