Dear Rookie#1,
When I told you to hunker down, I didn't mean drop a grenade at where you and your allies are taking cover.

Dear Thinman,
How did you miss? That guy was standing out in the open, you can hit a veteran hunkered down behind a brick wall but a Rookie standing out in the open is just too hard to hit?

It's known as the Oppai-Kaiju effect. The islands of Japan generate a sort anti-gravity field, which allows breasts to behave as if in microgravity. It's also what allows Godzilla and friends to become 50 stories tall, and lets ninjas run up the side of a skyscraper.

Well, let's say you're going away from Earth on huge spaceship and suddenly shit goes wrong and you have Super Mutants. Social Experiments prepared them for this.

Dear riflemen,

It is my belief that charging along with your entire squad at a trench filled with machine guns may not be the wisest strategy at this juncture. I sincerely believe that the Meat Grinder tactic may not be as effective as you were told.

Then it happened. Then I cringed. Then I picked it up and beat him to death with it, and then his buddies, too.

Yeah there is one... that increases the percieved hitboxes of objects.
They help but won't do much if the AI decides to ignore the existence of an asteroid or warpgate.

Attention Strike Force Bravo;
       It has come to my attention that, during the last routine UFO recovery, that several of you were severely wounded in what has only been described to me as "A freak accident involving Pvt. Simmons, a LMG, and what he thought was a clear firing line". Now while you all refuse to go into further detail than that, I am pretty damn sure I can piece together what happened. As a result, I would like to congratulate Private Simmons on his new position as the head of our new Alien Recovery Unit. Remember Simmons, we need them alive, but you are replacable.

With love,
    The Director.

Its the same thing, with the added benefit of carrying the stun weaponry you need to be at like, 3 tiles, to use.

Attention Watch Crew of U-213

I know that, as Captain of this vessel, many of you feel intimidated by my presence. After all, I am exactly the kind of chiseled perfection of humanity the Kreigsmarine desires in a Captian. However, do not let that intimidation fool you, for I am open to listening to you. So perhaps, if there is say, a British military convoy around 1km from us, closing fast, it is perhaps best to tell me immediatly, instead of allowing me to peice together the siutation when a destroyer shell the size of a baseball slams though the bulkhead near my bunk.

Yours truely
    Kaelun Thunder.

It happens in SH3 too? Also happens in SH5, and in some mods in SH4. It does not happen in SH4 vanilla or SH4 TMO, which is why I keep going back to those instead :\

Dear Colonel 'Gonzo' Ghalib,
You are my only high rank Assault trooper.
That was a %98 chance to hit that you just missed against that injured Elite Muton.
I'll miss you, Colonel 'Gonzo' Ghalib.

Sincerely, your commanding officer.

Dear Gobball,

Yes, yes, I know I upped your movement range with that buff. But I really was counting on you to stand between me and that thing trying to kill me. Running away to kill that weaker monster isn't going to help me as much as you standing where you were before. I buffed you a ton since all my spells can only be used on my summons, so you will be fine. Just keep getting hit for me, okay?

Thanks.

Dear Vassals:
Your futile rebellions always fail to achieve their goals, and in the process leave the entire kingdom vulnerable to foreign invaders. Please stop dividing the kingdom with petty strife.
Dear chancellor, Chaplin:
Your continued failure to achieve great success in near anything is making me question those high numbers you supposedly have. It is completely imperative to Ireland's survival that we have a larger army than England, which you hinder.

Yarr, Litcube's "Bounce" mod helps a ton with fighters. Actually makes having a fleet of high speed fighters useful. Bounce and the MARS mod are my favorite ones to use since it makes combat a bit more interesting. I do wish that Bounce was applied to all ships though so that early game "Defend the Station" missions aren't quite as easy as "wait until the M5 splatters itself into the station"

Quote from: Mr Frog
Digging's a lot like surgery, see -- you grab the sharp thing and then drive the sharp end of the sharp thing in as hard as you can and then stuff goes flying and then stuff falls out and then there's a big hole and you're done. I kinda wish there was more screaming, but rocks don't hurt so I guess it can't be helped.
