((Wait...DIDN"T I POST AN ACTION LAST TURN?? HANG ON...FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU))

Go down the line, telling them of how proud I am of my son, even though he just got ripped to shreds in a reactor accident.....he got better though.
Subtly ask if anyone saw anything really crazy while doing the cowering thing.


((Well this is a first, STEPHEN HAWKING is using his OOC omniscience to actually HELP. WUT.))

"Um...thanks?"
Ignore him. He's crazy.
He did give us our immortality, though.
Probably, yeah, but that doesn't quote make sense...

Noted, noted, and noted. Given Firaxis's involvement with X-Com, I can guess what it does. Of course kills don't mean much, but they seem like the kind of thing soldiers would boast about. And yeah, that's odd.

((Could be much creepier/generally worse.

There was a Star Trek: The Next Generation episode that mentioned something about Scotland reclaiming its independence through rebellion fueled by terrorism.
Yeah Star Trek is actually kinda dark if you know where to look...))

HMR stands for Hazardous Materials Requisition, not Horrible Massive Ruination, though I can understand how one could get confused.

((I'm working on (ab)using snipers, but still working on Step 3: Locate Good Ground. Ie, ground where Squadsight helps, because it doesn't seem to grant LOS if there is a wall/statue/car/etc in the way.))



"Um...okay?"
You're repairing a reactor. Follow me.
Weren't we all here?
Humor him. Four has a better sense, anyways.

Re-enter the reactor area. Search for the problem. Don't jump at it.
(Get the suit with the grappling hook (skeleton suit) and get up somewhere high. Doesn't even have to be that much higher. But yeah, Snipers should always go up high and in the rear, so they get best line of sight while using squadsight and staying out of the line of fire. Make sure to give them scopes (obviously) and powerful rifles. And remember that their accuracy INCREASES at long distance and DECREASES at medium and short. )



You're gonna guess the broken part is that one right there, the fan covered in gore.

((All my characters seem to dance to dubstep.))
I was just using that song because of this video, that I  like:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oyA8odjCzZ4


"Finally..."

Charge another AUX bonus up while I wait for them to weld the plate.
HNNNNNNGGGGGGGGGGGGG

Not exactly sure how you charge a bonus here. Read the manual? no, nothing ever comes with one. Uh...practice kungfu moves with the arms. Yeah, sure.

"How about we try that again, but with less terror?"

Help Mesk!
Helping mesk: ie Restraining Mesk.

Use notes from my time waiting, check alignment and weld up the attachments, move on to the next plate when finished
[handi:3+1]
You get it welded on pretty good, you think.

Yeah, a professional welder is gonna be like "LOOK AT THIS COINING! IT'S FUCKING TERRIBLE!" But whatever. It's functional.

Marcius, not wanting to make himself a total fool, examines the plate closely to decide where to weld before doing so. ((am I allowed a dynamic bonus with a -1?)) If he can't understand the intricacy of burning metal so that it sticks together, ((I can't get the bonus)) he just welds it into place. If he fails, try again.
Yeah, but you gotta spend this turn charging it.


"I suggest you look for whatever is causing the power to be out."

Stand next to hole.

Every hole is a goal.

Unrelated note:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=klLSZooiirk

walk along gantries around reactor, look for a breach
You stomp around on the gantries, slowly making your way around the core while occasionally stopping to shine your lights on the core and look around.

You can't see the leak from up here. It must be down in the water somewhere. 



((Wait...DIDN"T I POST AN ACTION LAST TURN?? HANG ON...FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU))

Go down the line, telling them of how proud I am of my son, even though he just got ripped to shreds in a reactor accident.....he got better though.

((Well this is a first, STEPHEN HAWKING is using his OOC omniscience to actually HELP. WUT.))
[speech:3-1]
You go down the line of people, showing them your mug and making lemur noises at them.

Brazil....

Yeah, after this you should try the old game. It's much better, in some ways, with letting you have more guys and customize everything a lot more, not to mention not doing that thing where aliens appear and then run around for a free turn.

But there will be times near the end where missions will go like this:

Get out of the skyranger
See 50 enemies leering out of the darkness
Get back in the skyranger.
